Refined Soybean Oil
Description :
Overview of Refined Soybean Oil
Refined Soybean Oil is a highly purified vegetable oil obtained from soybeans through degumming, neutralisation, bleaching, and deodorisation processes. The refining removes free fatty acids, odours, colour bodies, and impurities, making the oil suitable for food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications.
It is rich in linoleic acid (omega-6), oleic acid, and tocopherols, which contribute to its emollient properties and oxidative stability when properly refined. Refined Soybean Oil is typically supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid with a neutral odour and taste.
It is widely used as a base oil and carrier and is commonly combined with Sunflower Oil, Coconut Oil, Castor Oil, Mineral Oil, Glyceryl Esters, Fatty Alcohols, and Antioxidants in various formulations.
Application of Refined Soybean Oil
Food and Nutritional Applications
Refined Soybean Oil is extensively used in cooking oils, frying oils, bakery products, margarine, shortenings, and processed foods. Due to its neutral flavour and high smoke point, it is suitable for both domestic and industrial food processing.
Cosmetic and Personal Care Products
In cosmetics and personal care, Refined Soybean Oil is used in creams, lotions, massage oils, soaps, lip balms, and hair oils. It acts as an emollient, skin-conditioning agent, and carrier oil, improving skin softness and moisture retention.
Pharmaceutical and Topical Products
It is used in ointments, topical emulsions, and pharmaceutical preparations as a base oil due to its stability, skin compatibility, and refined purity.
Industrial and Speciality Applications
