Description: Turpentine oil is a clear, flammable liquid, with a pungent odour and bitter taste. It is immiscible with water and has a boiling point above 150°C.
It is a mixture of organic compounds, mainly terpenes, and its composition can vary considerably (more so than rosin) according to the species of pine from which it was derived. However, like rosin it is a very versatile material chemical and nowadays,.
it is used mostly after further processing. It usually undergoes fractional distillation to isolate the desirable chemicals (mainly alpha-pinene and beta-pinene) which are then transformed into value-added derivatives

● HDPE Drum, 172 kg net each
● Turpentine oil is used in whole form, usually as a solvent for paints and varnishes or as a cleaning agent.
● its derivatives are widely used in fragrance, flavor, vitamin and polyterpene resin manufacture, and form the basis of a substantial and growing chemical industry.
● The biggest single turpentine oil derivative, synthetic pine oil, is used in disinfectants, cleaning agents and other products with a ‘pine’ odor.
● Many derivatives, including isobornyl acetate, camphor, linalool, citral, citronellol, citronellal and menthol are used either on their own or in the elaboration of other fragrance and flavour compounds.
● A few of the minor constituents of turpentine oil, such as anethole, are employed for fragrance or flavour use without the need for chemical modification.
GEGR is commonly used in citrus-flavoured soft drinks to keep flavouring oils suspended in water, ensuring uniform taste and appearance. It serves as an alternative to brominated vegetable oil for this purpose.
In the confectionery industry, MEG acts as a softening agent and stabilizer in the production of chewing gum and bubble gum, contributing to the desired texture and consistency.
It is applied as a thixotropic agent in pesticide dispersions and used in coated urea fertilizers for tobacco cultivation.
MEG is utilized as a tackifier in depilatory products and other cosmetic formulations, enhancing product performance.
MEG is used as a coating agent, binder, and film-forming agent.
