This product is refined from animal and vegetable oils by hydrolysis and distillation. It is a white or light yellow solid, insoluble in water, soluble in hot ethanol, non-toxic and odorless, and has the general chemical properties of organic dicarboxylic acids.

It is a light yellow transparent oily liquid at room temperature, with a melting point of 13.4℃ and a specific gravity of 0.8905. It is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and gasoline. It is converted to stearic acid when hydrogenated. It has the general chemical properties of organic dicarboxylic acids and the chemical properties of unsaturated double bonds.

Palmitic acid (palmitic acid), scientific name “hexadecanoic acid”, also known as palmitic acid, is a saturated higher fatty acid, colorless, odorless waxy solid, widely present in nature, almost all oils and fats contain varying amounts of soft fatty acid components.
