by the British in the early 1870s to Malaysia,
then Malaya, as an ornamental plant. In 1917,

Palm Oil and Palm Kernel Oil Applications
|
|
| |
Oil
palm, scientifically known as Elaeis guineensis
jaq, is a unique crop as its fruit produces two
distinct types of oils; crude palm oil from the
mesocarp and crude palm kernel oil from the kernel.
Both of these oils, which are mainly made up of
triglycerides, are chemically and physically different
from each other with palm oil high in palmitic
acid (C16 fatty acid) and palm kernel oil high
in lauric and myristic acids (C12 and C14 fatty
acids respectively).
