Description

Coconut Oil, Hydrogenated is a fully saturated, high-melting-point vegetable fat derived from the catalytic hydrogenation of coconut oil. This process enhances its oxidative stability and solid consistency, making it a valuable, shelf-stable ingredient for demanding industrial and consumer applications. It is essential for manufacturers in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries seeking a consistent, white, and odorless fat base with excellent texture and melting properties.

Application

• Food Industry: Used as a structuring fat in confectionery coatings, chocolate compounds, non-dairy creamers, and bakery shortenings to provide a smooth mouthfeel and resist melting at room temperature.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Serves as an occlusive emollient and thickening agent in lotions, creams, lip balms, soaps, and solid fragrance sticks, contributing to product hardness and skin barrier protection.
• Pharmaceuticals: Employed as an inert suppository base and as a lubricant/binder in tablet formulations, valued for its sharp melting point and compatibility.
• Industrial Applications: Functions as a release agent, lubricant, or processing aid in various manufacturing processes, including plastics and rubber.
• Candle Making: Acts as a primary component or additive in candle wax blends to improve hardness, burn time, and fragrance throw.
