.A naturally occurring mono-unsaturated omega-9 unsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid may be found in a variety of animal and plant fats and oils. The oil is colorless and odorless, however commercial samples could be tinted yellow. Oleic acid is categorized as a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid in terms of chemistry. "Oleic" refers to everything that is associated with or derived from olive oil, which is mostly made up of oleic acid.
Manufacturing Process
In the typical production process of oleic acid, a blend of fats, including beef tallow, lard, and vegetable oil, is utilized. This mixture undergoes refining and hydrolysis to generate mixed fatty acids. Cold compression of these fatty acids results in the production of oleic and stearic acid. Following this, a series of dehydration and distillation processes are carried out to yield crude oleic acid, with stearic acid as a by-product. Notably, approximately 80% of the distillate obtained from this process comprises oleic acid.
