Food grade white oil is not only widely used in the lubrication of food machinery and food processing, but can also be used as a food additive in candy production. Its main function is to prevent candy from sticking to each other during production. Of course, food grade mineral oil can also be used as a lubricant, release agent, and defoamer in food processing. WJWAX is a professional manufacturer of food grade and cosmetic grade white oil in China. If you have purchasing needs, you can contact us for a quotation.

What are the applications of food grade white oil in the food industry?
It is a commonly used ingredient in the food industry for various applications. Here are some of its uses:
Food Processing: It is often used as a lubricant and anti-sticking agent in food processing equipment. It helps prevent food from sticking to conveyors, molds, and cutting blades, improving production efficiency and reducing waste.
Food Packaging: It is used in food packaging materials to provide lubrication and prevent sticking. It can be applied to films, foils, or parchment paper to ensure easy release of food products and maintain their appearance and quality.
Flavor and Additive Carrier:It serves as a carrier or diluent for flavors, colors, and other food additives. It helps disperse these substances evenly and enhances their stability, ensuring consistent flavor and appearance in food products.
Release Agent: In baking and confectionery applications, food grade white mineral oil is used as a release agent. It is applied to baking pans, molds, and trays to prevent food from sticking, making it easier to remove baked goods without damage.
Equipment Maintenance: Mineral oil is also used for lubricating food processing equipment to ensure smooth operation and prevent friction and wear. It is safe for incidental contact with food and helps maintain the longevity and performance of machinery.
It's important to note that food grade white mineral oil must meet strict safety and purity standards to ensure it is suitable for direct contact with food. Manufacturers adhere to regulations and guidelines to ensure its safety and compliance with food industry standards.

Capsicum Oleoresin is prepared by extracting the crushed capsicum (Capsicum Annum Linn) with volatile solvents by percolation method. It contains the pungent principles, capsicin not less that 8 percent. It also contains the red colouring matter called Capsanthin. This product is a powerful irritant and a carminative, which is also used as a counter irritant in lumbago and neuralgia. It can also be used to treat stomach ache that involves poorly functioning stomach muscles and as an antibacterial agents. Extraction of oleoresin capsicum from peppers involves finely ground capsicum, from which capsaicin is extracted in an organic solvent such as ethanol. The solvent is then evaporated, and the remaining wax like resin is the oleoresin capsicum. An emulsifier such as propylene glycol is used to suspend the OC in water, and pressurized to make it aerosol in pepper spray. The high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is used to measure the amount of capsaicin within pepper sprays. Scoville Heat Units (SHU) are used to measure the concentration or "heat" of pepper spray. A synthetic analogue of capsaicin, pelargonic acid vanillylamide (desmethyldihydrocapsaicin), is used in another version of pepper spray known as PAVA spray which is used in the United Kingdom. Another synthetic counterpart of pepper spray, pelargonic acid morpholide, was developed and is widely used in Russia. Its effectiveness compared to natural pepper spray is unclear. Pepper spray typically comes in canisters, which are often small enough to be carried or concealed in a pocket or purse. Pepper spray can also be bought concealed in items such as rings. There are also pepper spray projectiles available, which can be fired from a paintball gun. It has been used for years against demonstrators. Derived from chilli peppers, oleoresin capsicum is the active ingredient in pepper spray and in some topical pain relievers.
Ginger root Botanical name: Zingiber officinale Linn. Family: Zingiberaceae. Ginger oil and oleoresins are the volatile oil derived by steam distillation of ginger and oleoresin. It is obtained by percolating the powdered rhizomes of Ginger, Zingiber officinale with volatile solvents. Ginger contains 1-2 percent of volatile oil, 5-8 percent of pungent acrid oleoresin and starch. Zingiberene is the chief constituent in the oil of ginger. Oil is employed for flavoring all kinds of food products and confectionary and finds limited use in perfumery. Oleoresin, commercially called Gingerin contains pungent principles viz. gingerol and shogaol apart from the volatile oil of ginger and is used as an aromatic, carminative, stomachic and as a stimulant. Oleoresin from ginger is obtained conventionally by extraction of dried powdered ginger with organic solvents like ethyl acetate, ethanol or acetone. Commercial dried ginger yields 3.5-10.0 per cent oleoresin. Ginger oleoresin is a dark brown viscous liquid responsible for the flavour and pungency of the spice. Ginger of commerce or `Adrak` is the dried underground stem or rhizome of the plant, which constitutes one of the five most important major spices of India, standing third or fourth, competing with chillies, depending upon fluctuations in world market prices, world market demand and supply position. Ginger, like cinnamon, clove and pepper, is one of the most important and oldest spices. It consists of the prepared and sun dried rhizomes known in trade as `hands` and `races` which are either with the outer brownish cortical layers (coated or unscraped), or with outer peel or coating partially or completely removed. Ginger requires a warm and humid climate. It is cultivated from sea level to an altitude of 1500 meters, either under heavy rainfall conditions of 150 to 300 cm or under irrigation. The crop can thrive well in sandy or clayey loam or lateritic soils.

Ginger Oleoresin is obtained by extraction of powdered dried ginger with suitable solvents like alcohol, acetone etc. Unlike volatile oil, it contains both the volatile oil and the non-volatile pungent principles for which ginger is so highly esteemed. Concentration of the acetone extract under vacuum and on complete removal of even traces of the solvent used, yields the so called oleoresin of ginger. Ginger oleoresin is manufactured on a commercial scale in India and abroad and is in great demand by the various food industries.
