Tallow Fatty Acid Absolute MD LA 4066

Original designation: Acide gras de suif ABS DM LA 4066

Extraction & expression

Absolute extraction preserves a broad, saturated portrait of the source. Traditionally, fragrant biomass is first solvent-extracted and the resulting concrete or resinoid is purified with alcohol, giving perfumers a dense material rich in less-volatile facets. Molecular or short-path distillation selects the profile under high vacuum, often refining colour and separating lighter from heavier registers.

Technology recorded for this material

  • Molecular distillation uses high vacuum and a short vapour path to separate selected fractions with limited thermal exposure, an advanced route for controlling difficult aromatic materials.
  • Alcohol washing dissolves the aromatic fraction in ethanol, then uses chilling and filtration to separate waxes and heavier insolubles. This is a defining route from many concretes or resinoids to absolutes.

These process marks describe selective transformation. They can support a premium grade, but do not alone certify present condition, purity or universal superiority.
