Product Description
Ucuuba Butter (Virola sebifera)
Raw ingredient. Product obtained from the cold pressing of freshly wild crafted Ucuuba seeds. Natural product. No additives.
DESCRIPTION
Ucuuba Butter has a high-melting point (53 °C) and saponification value (220 mg KOH / g oil), which exceeds the values of beef tallow (ranges from 43 to 45 °C and 200 mg KOH / g) and turns ucuuba butter into a unique raw material for replacing animal tallow in the production of fine soaps, as well as other fatty substances in the food and pharmaceutical industries that require a high melting point.
Ucuuba seeds are rich in fat (60%–70%), and 70% of the fat is composed of trimyristin, a triglyceride of myristic acid which is an aromatic essential oil that is important to the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. Currently, this essential oil is extracted from nutmeg, which has a concentration of about 80% of this triglyceride.
