1. Overview

Linseed oil fatty acid (LOFA), or flaxseed fatty acid (FFA), is consist of linolenic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid and small amount of stearic acid and palmitic acid.

Because this type has several superior characteristics such as high iodine value, high acid value, light color, low unsaponifiable matter and no impurity ions, it is top-rated among similar products and has the best quick-drying performance among all light color LOFA products.

This product is mainly used to produce resins for quick-drying coatings and ink.
