Abstract: The invention relates to a process for separation of a processed vegetable fat (PVF), wherein said process comprises the steps of: in a distillation step (DIS), distilling the processed vegetable fat (PVF) into a distillate part (DPT) comprising stearic and oleic acid and/or esters thereof, and a distilled vegetable fat (DVF); in a first fractionation step (DFR), fractionating the distilled vegetable fat (DVF) into a first higher melting point fraction (FHF) being rich in tri-stearate triglycerides (StStSt, where St=stearic acid) and di-stearate diglycerides (StSt) and a first lower melting point fraction (FLF); and in a second fractionation step, fractionating the first lower melting point fraction (FLF) into a second higher melting point fraction (SHF) being rich in 1,3-distearyl-2-oleyl-triglycerides (StOSt, where O=oleic acid), and a second lower melting point fraction (SLF) being rich in 1-stearyl-2,3-dioleyl-triglycerides (StOO) and trioleate-triglycerides (OOO) in a solvent fractionation process (SF

Abstract: A non-lauric, non-trans, non-temper (Non-LTT) fat composition comprising a fraction obtained from a randomised triglyceride mixture in which min. 90% by weight of the constituent fatty acids are: palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), arachidic (C20:0) behenic (C22:0), oleic (C18:1) and linoleic (C18:2) acid and the total content of arachidic and behenic acid is 3-40% by weight and the total content of palmitic and stearic acids is 25-60% by weight, said fraction having the following physical and chemical properties: (1) slip melting point measured according to AOCS Cc 3-25: below 36° C. and solid fat content (SFC) measured according to IUPAC 2.150 mod. (stabilised at 20° C. for 24 h): above 25% by weight at 20° C.; (2) total content of saturated fatty acids measured according to IUPAC 2.301 and 2.

Abstract: A vegetable oil fraction rich in non-tocolic, high-melting, unsaponifiable matter is prepared by the following steps: A vegetable oil having a slip melting point of not more thatn 30° C. and a content of unsaponifiable matter of at least 0.5% by weight is hydrogenated to fully saturate the fatty acids of the glycerides and to reach a slip melting point of at least 57° C. To the hydrogenated oil is added from 1 to 75% by weight of the unhydrogenated starting oil or another oil having a slip melting point of not more than 30° C. in order to act as a carrier and vehicle for the unsaponifiable matter. Then, a solvent is added to the oil mixture in a ratio between oil and solvent from 1:2 to 1:20, and the mixture is heated to transparency. The oil/-solvent-mixture is cooled in one or more steps to a final temperature in the range from ?35 to +30° C., and the precipitated high-melting fraction(s) is (are) filtered off. The filtrate is desolventised, leaving a fraction rich in unsaponifiable matter.

Abstract: A vegtable oil fraction rich in non-tocolic, high-melting, unsaponifiable matter is prepared by the following steps: A vegetable oil having a slip melting point of not more thatn 30° C. and a content of unsaponifiable matter of at least 0.5% by weight is hydrongenated to fully saturate the fatty acids of the glycerides and to reach a slip melting point of at least 57° C. To the hydrongenated oil is added from 1 to 75% by weight of the unhydrogenated starting oil or another oil having a slip melting poing of not more than 30° C. in order to act as a carrier and vehicle for the unsaponifiable matter. Then, a solvent is added to the oil mixture in a ratio between oil and solvent from 1:2 to 1:20, and the mixture is heated to transparency. The oil/-solvent-mixture is cooled in one or more steps to a final temperature in the range from −35 to +30° C., and the precipitated high-melting fraction(s) is (are) filtered off.
