SOYBEAN OIL
Soybeans are crushed to obtain oil and its meal. The oil content in soybeans is normally 17-18%. Crude soybean oil is extracted from soybeans. Crude soybean oil undergoes further refinement- degumming, refining, bleaching, and deodorizing and forms refined soy oil.

Soya bean oil is the leading vegetable oil traded in the international markets, next only to palm. Palm and Soya bean oils together constitute around 68% global edible oil trade volume, with Soya bean oil constituting 22.85%.

1. Alfa Tocopherol content in Soybean Oil, is active in Improving Immunity, Controlling Ageing, Cardiovascular Diseases and also finds use in Cancer treatment.

 

2. Being a semi drying oil, Soybean Oil is used in Surface Coating Industries such as Paints, Varnishes, Printing Ink and related products.

 

3. Soybean Oil can also be used for making Alkyd Resins, Core Oils and Blown Oils, used in metal foundries for making moulds and patterns.

 

4. Soybean Oil can be used for making Plasticizers and Epoxydised Oils, to maintain the plasticity of PVC and as a stabilizer for increasing the stability in PVC and Pesticides.

 

5. Soybean Oil can be used for Fortification with anti-oxidant like BHA (Butylated Hydroxy Anisole) after hydrogenation, which increases the shelf life of BHA.
