Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between distilled coconut fatty acid and individual fatty acids?
Distilled coconut fatty acid is a complete blend of all fatty acids found in coconut oil (C8 to C18). Individual fatty acids like Lauric Acid or Myristic Acid are isolated from this blend through further fractionation. The blend is more economical and suitable for many industrial applications.
Is this product RSPO certified?
Yes, we offer RSPO certified distilled coconut fatty acid (Mass Balance and Segregated) upon request. Learn more about our sustainability commitment.
Do you offer samples before bulk purchase?
Yes, we provide free samples for qualified buyers. Shipping charges may apply. Contact our sales team to arrange sample delivery.
What certifications are available for this product?
We offer Halal certified, RSPO certified, and Kosher certified distilled coconut fatty acid upon request. View our quality certifications.
What is the typical shelf life?
When stored properly in sealed containers away from moisture and extreme temperatures, distilled coconut fatty acid has a shelf life of 24 months.
Why does the product solidify at room temperature?
Due to its fatty acid composition (high C12 and C14 content), distilled coconut fatty acid has a titer of 20-26°C. It may solidify in cooler temperatures. Gentle warming will return it to liquid form without affecting quality.
