Soybean Acid Oil
Soybean acid oil is recovered by acidulating the soapstock from soybean oil refining. Its high linoleic content gives it the most reactive unsaturation of the common acid oils, which suits epoxidation and alkyd resin routes.
Sunflower Acid Oil
Sunflower acid oil is the mixed fatty acid stream recovered by acidulating sunflower refinery soapstock. It is high in linoleic acid, pale by the standards of acid oils, and used in industrial soap, esterification and feed.
Glycerine
Glycerine (CAS 56-81-5, INCI Glycerin) is propane-1,2,3-triol, a clear, odourless, syrupy liquid with a sweet taste. It is recovered as the co-product of soap making and biodiesel manufacture, and is traded as crude or refined to 99.5 percent.
Castor Oil
Castor oil is the feedstock for an entire branch of oleochemistry, because ricinoleic acid carries a hydroxyl group that ordinary fatty acids lack. That group is the entry point to sebacic acid, undecylenic acid, polyols and 12-hydroxystearic acid.
Hydrogenated Castor Oil (Castor Wax)
Hydrogenated castor oil, supplied as flake or micronised powder, is the direct precursor to 12-hydroxystearic acid, the thickener in most lithium greases. Splitting the wax releases the hydroxy acid that gives grease its structure.
Palm Kernel Oil
For oleochemical conversion, palm kernel oil is bought for chain length rather than for melting behaviour. Roughly half its fatty acids are the twelve-carbon lauric chain on which surfactant, fatty alcohol and soap chemistry all depend.
Palm Kernel Stearin
Fractionating palm kernel oil concentrates its saturated chains into the stearin fraction, taking the iodine value down to single figures. For a converter that means a feed that resists oxidation and consumes little hydrogen on hardening.
Palm Stearin
Palm stearin is what stays solid when palm oil is fractionated. Converters buy it as the least expensive concentrated supply of saturated sixteen-carbon chains, for splitting into fatty acids, saponification and stearic acid manufacture.
RBD Palm Kernel Olein
Palm kernel olein is the liquid fraction of palm kernel oil, separated by controlled crystallisation. For oleochemical conversion it concentrates the shorter C8 to C12 chains and stays pumpable at ambient temperature, cutting tank heating requirements.
Soap Noodles
Soap noodles are the semi-finished extruded pellets that bar soap manufacturers buy in place of running their own saponification. They are graded by total fatty matter and by the palm to palm kernel ratio, commonly 80:20 or 90:10.
Alkyl Polyglucoside (APG)
Alkyl polyglucoside (CAS 68515-73-1, INCI Coco-Glucoside) is a non-ionic surfactant made by linking glucose from starch to a fatty alcohol from coconut or palm kernel oil. It is fully plant-derived, readily biodegradable and unusually mild.
Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI)
Sodium cocoyl isethionate (CAS 61789-32-0, INCI Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate) is a mild anionic surfactant made from coconut fatty acids. It lathers richly at neutral pH, which is what makes syndet bars possible without the harshness of true soap.
Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SLS)
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (CAS 151-21-3, INCI Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) is the workhorse anionic surfactant, made by sulphating lauryl alcohol from coconut or palm kernel oil. It foams powerfully and cleans aggressively at low cost.
Palm Methyl Ester
Palm methyl ester is produced by transesterifying palm oil or palm fatty acids with methanol. It is supplied for industrial use as a bio-based solvent, lubricant base and sulphonation feedstock, rather than as retail automotive fuel.

Confirm the evidence before ordering
Grade, origin and certification are confirmed for each proposed source. A vegetable-derived feedstock is not automatically certified sustainable, pharmaceutical grade or suitable for every application; request the evidence needed for your intended use.
Product illustrations show representative material and packaging. The quotation confirms the actual source, grade, pack size and labelling.
