Also known as MCT Oil or Medium Chain Triglycerides is a fraction of the whole coconut oil. To be exact, fractionated coconut oil has the long chain triglycerides like lauric acid removed retaining the capric and caprylic acids.
Fractionated Coconut Oil (MCT Oil - Medium Chain Triglycerides) is made from the highest quality coconuts and possibly has numerous personal and industrial applications. MCT can also be derived from Palm Oil through the esterification process. Which ever base product is used the end product has the same fatty acids that provide the characteristics that make MCT Oil so popular.
Fractionated Coconut Oil is clear and odorless leaving no greasy feeling. Furthermore, it does not stain and easily washes out of sheets and clothing making it and ideal choice for massage clients. It's also important to note that fractionated coconut oil does not become solid like regular coconut oil but keeps all the great properties and has a very long shelf life.
Fractionated Coconut Oil is one of the most versatile oils. It's commonly used as a moisturizer, for essential oil blend recipes, in lip balms and used commonly in soap making applications. It's also used as a natural deodorant, for face wash, as hair conditioner, as eye makeup remover, aromatherapy and many other household uses. But the single most common use for fractionated coconut oil is as a carrier for other ingredients. Because it's clear and odorless it doesn't interfere with properties of other ingredients.
