  • palm kernel oil margarine shortening production line
  • Why is palm oil used in margarines & shortenings?
  • Palm oil is very suitable as a major component in margarines and shortenings because it is naturally semi-solid and it can be further modified by fractionation, interesterification, hydrogenation and blending. It is high in palmitic acid (44%) and crystallizes in the ¦Â'form which is desirable in margarines and shortenings.
  • How does palm oil affect margarine consistency?
  • Palm oil, which contributes the b¡¯ crystal polymorph and the best alternative to hydrogenated liquid fats, and the processing conditions can affect the margarine consistency by influencing the solid fat content (SFC) and the types of crystal polymorph formed during production as well as in storage.
  • Is palm oil good for shortenings?
  • It is high in palmitic acid (44%) and crystallizes in the ¦Â'form which is desirable in margarines and shortenings. It contains 10% essential fatty acids (linoleic acid). The roles and the applications of palm oil and palm products in various types of shortenings and margarines are discussed.
  • Do palm based shortenings require hydrogenation?
  • Palmbased shorteningsdo not require hydrogenation due to the natural state of the palm oil that contains a high degree of shorter-chain saturated fatty acids, which incorporates the liquid components into the crystal network, thereby providing the shortening structure and texture .
  • How does polymorphic transformation of palm oil margarines affect crystal formation?
  • Polymorphic transformation of palm oil margarines made at different emulsion temperatures during storage at 28°C the broken crystal bonds enhanced the formation of crystal aggregates that eventually led to formation of the bigger crystals as shown by the transformation of b¡¯- to b-crystals at the end of the fourth week (Table 5).
  • What causes post-hardening in margarine & shortening?
  • The occurrence of post-hardening in margarine and shortening could lead to serious quality problem resulting in the rejection of the product. Choice of the oils and fats, processing conditions, transportation and storage are some of the common causes of the problem.
