At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we believe in providing not just products, but comprehensive understanding. This includes the intricate chemical properties of our high-purity Rapeseed Oil (CAS 8002-13-9) that underpin its diverse applications. This light yellow liquid is more than just a cooking oil; it's a sophisticated blend of organic compounds that offer significant benefits across various industries.

The foundation of rapeseed oil's utility lies in its fatty acid composition. Predominantly, it is rich in oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid that contributes significantly to its oxidative stability. This means the oil is less prone to rancidity when exposed to air and heat, a crucial factor for both food preservation and industrial product longevity. Alongside oleic acid, it contains substantial amounts of linoleic acid and linolenic acid, polyunsaturated fatty acids known for their health benefits, particularly in supporting cardiovascular health by potentially lowering cholesterol. The saturated fatty acid content, mainly palmitic and stearic acids, remains relatively low, further enhancing its health profile.

Further enhancing its value are the natural antioxidants present in rapeseed oil, most notably Vitamin E (tocopherols). Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that protects the oil from degradation and, when incorporated into products, can offer similar protective benefits to the end-user. This aspect is particularly relevant for rapeseed oil cosmetic raw material applications, where antioxidants help protect the skin from environmental damage. The presence of plant sterols, such as β-sitosterol, also plays a role in inhibiting cholesterol absorption, reinforcing its health-promoting properties.

The physical and chemical properties of rapeseed oil, such as its refractive index (N20/D 1.47) and solubility (slightly soluble in ethanol), are important parameters for formulators to consider. Its stability is generally good, though it is advised to keep it cool and away from ignition sources, noting it is flammable. These characteristics make it a reliable and predictable ingredient for various formulations, from food products to industrial lubricants and inks. Understanding these rapeseed oil chemical properties allows for optimal utilization, ensuring that manufacturers can harness its full potential. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides this essential raw material with the assurance of consistent quality, enabling innovation and product excellence.
