CRUDE PALM KERNEL OIL (CPKO)

Crude palm kernel oil; is derived from palm kernel which is palm seed. It is a liquid at room temperature and light yellow in color and has unique strong taste and smell. 

The fatty acid composition, physical and chemical properties of palm kernel oil is very similar to those of coconut oil. Palm kernel oil mainly contains lauric acid, palmitic acid and oleic acid. It has iodine value of 18.5 approximately. Due to high content of lauric acid and low level of unsaturation, gives the palm kernel oil its high melting point.
