Production Process
Nature-Derived, Palm-Based Purified Glycerine
Glycerine is generally procured as a secondary output of soap production, where it is isolated from fatty acid compounds during the saponification procedure. The ensuing glycerine then undergoes a thorough refinement method to guarantee superior quality and freedom from impurities.
This purification procedure encompasses cleansing stages such as straining, distilling, and ion-exchange treatment. These stages eliminate pollutants including leftover soapy water and additional foreign substances, producing premium purified glycerine.
Hydrolysis Process
The hydrolysis of fats and oils disintegrates them into fatty acid and glycerol molecules. The glycerol is subsequently further refined and concentrated to yield purified glycerine 99.5% USP grade, appropriate for a broad spectrum of applications.
