Properties of Palm Oil
Palm oil has a balanced fatty acid composition in which the level
of saturated fatty acids is almost equal to that of the
unsaturated fatty acids. Palmitic acid (44%-45%) and oleic acid
(39%-40%) are the major component acids, with linoleic acid
(10%-11%) and only a trace amount of linolenic acid. The low
level of linoleic acid and virtual absence of linolenic acid make
the oil relatively stable to oxidative
deterioration.
Several surveys conducted by MPOB have showed that the Malaysian
palm oil has a narrow compositional range. The specifications for
the palm oil are given in Malaysian Standard MS814:2007 (Table
2). Palm oil is unique among vegetable oils because it has a
significant amount of saturated acids (10%-15%) at the
two-position of its triglycerides. The appreciable amounts of
disaturated (POP and PPO) and
monounsaturated (POO, OPO and PLO) allow it to be easily
separated into two products; palm olein and palm stearin. A wide
range of fractions with different properties to suit requirements
of the food industry is made available through dry
fractionation.
