Peanut Butter Unrefined 1 L

Peanut Oil Unrefined Overview and Specification Snapshot

Peanut Oil Unrefined 1 L serves as a versatile cold-pressed oil bulk option for cosmetic formulators seeking a stable carrier. This unrefined grade retains its natural profile of fatty acids and tocopherols, distinguishing it from refined variants. The oil appears as an oily mass that solidifies in the refrigerator and melts between 20-25°C. It belongs to the Bulk Liquid Oils category and carries the INCI name Peanut Oil, also known under the synonym Arachis hypogaea.

Origin, Sourcing and Grade

Produced in Germany under the Natura-Tec brand, this cold-pressed oil undergoes no thermal refining to preserve its inherent components. The grade targets professional users in carrier oils wholesale who require consistent quality for both small-batch and larger production runs. Sourcing focuses on peanut kernels processed to maintain the characteristic profile without additives.

Functional Performance in Formulations

In cosmetic applications the oil contributes to softening and nourishing effects on dry skin. Its fatty acid profile supports oxidative stability when blended appropriately, making it suitable for massage mixtures and balms. Compared with refined vs unrefined alternatives, this version offers a denser texture valued in richer emulsions and ointments.

Formulation Guidelines

Incorporate Peanut Oil Unrefined during the oil-phase stage at 60-70°C. Recommended input percentages include 5-10% for massage mixtures, 2-4% for oil serums, 5-10% for dry skin care, 1-3% to improve foaming formulas, 10-15% for ointments and balms, and 2% for emulsions. The ingredient remains soluble in oils and the fatty phase. It pairs effectively with lighter carriers for balanced absorption.

Quality Control and Documentation

Purchasing managers and R&D teams can request the MOQ details and full documentation package. The product maintains lot-to-lot consistency suitable for regulated cosmetic manufacturing environments.

Packaging Options and Lot Consistency

Supplied in 1 liter containers designed for transport, Peanut Oil Unrefined 1 L offers convenient sizing for laboratories and small manufacturers. often feature similar formats, while the Peanut Oil Unrefined 50 ml size supports initial testing. Storage in a cool, dark place inside tightly closed packaging helps preserve quality until the best-before date of 10.2028.

FAQ

What does the fatty acid profile reveal about oxidative stability?

The fatty acid profile of this unrefined oil indicates good resistance to oxidation under typical storage conditions when kept away from heat and light, supporting longer usability in finished formulas.

How does natural variation appear between production lots?

Color and odor may show minor natural differences from lot to lot due to the unrefined nature of the cold-pressed process, yet these variations remain within acceptable cosmetic ingredient standards.

Is the comedogenic rating a reliable indicator for skin formulas?

The comedogenic rating serves as a rough guide only; formulators should conduct their own compatibility tests because individual skin responses and final product matrices influence actual performance.

What signs indicate the end of shelf life and how can rancidity be delayed?

Off odors or changes in color signal potential rancidity. Storing the oil in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dark location slows oxidation and extends usability through the stated shelf life.
