LEMON OIL Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Refer to LEMON, EXTRACT.

Chemical Properties

From the normal essential oil, the terpeneless and sesquiterpeneless oils are obtained by vacuum rectification, washing with dilute alcohol or by column chromatography. Rectification is important to achieve a product with good solubility. Terpeneless oils are also more stable, as they are less sensitive to oxidation. Terpeneless oil has an intensely sweet, almost rosy-fruity odor
