Rosemary Oleoresin, 2 percent

MSDS

Commonly known as ROE, Rosemary Oil Extract. Rosemary Oleoresin is a oil soluble antioxidant. This means it protects vulnerable oils from oxidation, which causes the smell of rancid oil. Use just like Vitamin E Acetate or Vitamin E Natural, in products which need or benefit from antioxidants. This dark yellow green fluid has an herbaceous odor and is best suited for items where the scent is complementary. I love foot scrubs with peppermint, rosemary and eucalyptus essential oils and any fixed oil with Rosemary Oleoresin added. I am not the type to enjoy heavily scented foot creams so it isn't like these essential oils overpower the odor of the oleoresin. We have had so many requests to carry this antioxidant and now it is available through our catalog. Enjoy! Usage rates are 0.1 to 1% for antioxidant uses. 1 gallon weighs approximately 7.69 lbs. Carnosic acid content 2%. 507-1684 4 oz wt Rosemary Oleoresin 2% $5.80 507-1685 8 oz wt Rosemary Oleoresin 2% $10.80 507-1686 16 oz wt Rosemary Oleoresin 2% $18.00 507-1687 1 Gallon Rosemary Oleoresin 2% $122.00

Rosemary Oleoresin, 5 percent

MSDS

Commonly known as ROE, Rosemary Oil Extract. Rosemary Oleoresin is a oil soluble antioxidant. This means it protects vulnerable oils from oxidation, which causes the smell of rancid oil. Use just like Vitamin E Acetate or Vitamin E Natural, in products which need or benefit from antioxidants. This very dark fluid has a sharp, herbaceous odor and is best suited for items where the scent is complementary. I love foot scrubs with peppermint, rosemary and eucalyptus essential oils and any fixed oil with Rosemary Oleoresin added. I am not the type to enjoy heavily scented foot creams so it isn't like these essential oils overpower the odor of the oleoresin. We have had many requests to offer a stronger version of the Rosemary Oleoresin, so now we do. Usage rates are 0.05 to 0.5% for antioxidant uses. We have heard of doctors recommending this item for head lice treatment and the percentage of use, for this treatment, is undiluted. We aren't sure how effective this use is, but we have received more than one phone call stating "on doctor's orders" I want to purchase this item. 1 gallon weighs approximately 7.69 lbs.
