L'olio di palma, è ricavato per schiacciamento e per vari altri procedimenti chimici, dall'omonimo albero.

Insolubile in acqua e meno denso dell'acqua, vi galleggia.

Contiene principalmente gliceridi di acido palmitico, oleico, linoleico, laurico.

Viene impiegato nel biodiesel (1) e in campo medico (2).

Settore alimentare

In seguito alle campagne di stampa che hanno evidenziato i pericoli per la salute umana e per l'ambiente, questo olio è stato sostituito, dalle industrie alimentari più grandi, con l'olio di girasole.
