Description

Rape Oil, Hydrogenated is a fully saturated derivative of rapeseed oil, produced via catalytic hydrogenation to convert unsaturated fatty acids into their more stable saturated forms. This process significantly enhances its oxidative stability and melting profile, making it a valuable, semi-solid to solid fat for demanding industrial applications. It is a key ingredient for manufacturers in the food, cosmetics, and chemical synthesis sectors who require a consistent, high-melting-point lipid base with extended shelf life.

Application

• Food Industry: Used as a structuring fat, coating agent, and texturizer in confectionery, margarines, shortenings, and bakery products.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Serves as an emollient, occlusive agent, and viscosity builder in creams, lotions, lip balms, soaps, and solid stick formulations.
• Pharmaceuticals: Employed as an excipient in ointments, suppositories, and sustained-release drug delivery matrices.
• Lubricants & Release Agents: Functions as a bio-based component in specialty lubricants, mold release agents, and anti-stick coatings.
• Chemical Intermediate: Acts as a raw material for the production of fatty alcohols, amines, and other oleochemical derivatives.
• Candles & Waxes: Used as a hardening agent and modifier in candle wax blends to improve burn characteristics and texture.

Quality Control

Our Hydrogenated Rapeseed Oil is produced and tested to meet stringent quality standards suitable for food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications. We offer various grades, including Food Grade (FCC) and Kosher-certified options. Every batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as melting point, iodine value, free fatty acid content, and peroxide value to ensure consistency, purity, and performance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at temperatures below 30°C (86°F). Due to its susceptibility to oxidation, prolonged exposure to air and high temperatures should be minimized. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
