Corn Oil Extraction

Corn Oil is less expensive, has a milder taste and higher smoke point than other vegetable oils making it attractive as a cooking oil. Corn Oil is also a key ingredient in some margarines.

Corn Oil is also a source of biodiesel, and is expected to become a great source of biodiesel as technology evolves and as a backup to soybean oil. Other industrial applications include soap, salve, paint, rustproofing for metal surfaces, inks, textiles, nitroglycerin, and insecticides. It is sometimes used as a carrier for drug molecules in pharmaceutical preparations.
