Exceptions to the simple definition of an essential oil are, for example, gadic oil, onion oil, mustard oil, or sweet birch oils, each of which requires enzymatic release of the volatile components before steam distillation. In addition, the physical process of expression, appHed mostly to citms fmits such as orange, lemon, and lime, yields oils that contain from 2—15% nonvolatile material. Some flowers or resinoids obtained by solvent extraction often contain only a small portion of volatile oil, but nevertheless are called essential oils. Several oils are dry-distiUed and also contain a limited amount of volatiles nonetheless they also are labeled essential oils, eg, labdanum oil and balsam oil Pern. The yield of essential oils from plants varies widely. Eor example, nutmegs yield 10—12 wt % of oil, whereas onions yield less than 0.1% after enzymatic development. [Pg.296]

Both the terms resin and plastic are in common use but there are no explicit definitions for them. The term resin originally referred to vegetable-derived organic products of relatively high molecular weight, the best known of which are rosin and balsam obtained from coniferous trees. But, the term is now used much more broadly, and rather loosely, to include the manmade polymeric substances used in a variety of applications, such as in plastics, textiles, and paints. It is often used interchangeably with the term plastic . [Pg.5]
