APPLICATION
Uses:

BORDANTIX® POWDER is more effective when applied before oxidation process begins. For application of BORDANTIX® POWDER into oil, a presolution has to be prepared (max. dispersion into oil 5%).

To prepare the solution heat the oil till 70-80ºC and add BORDANTIX® POWDER. Afterwards BORDANTIX® POWDER has to be completely dispersed into the oil with vigorous stirring during 30 min.

This solution has to be added to total oil.

This antioxidant can also be used by dispersion in the aromas (essential oils etc.) or spices which are to be used in the foods and by "spray" treatment, previously dissolved in a vegetable oil or an animal fat. This technique is especially recommended when the oxidation takes place on the surface of the foods or if they possess an irregular shape.
