Abstract

Abstract An oil and fat composition for food processing machines comprises polyglycerides of medium chain saturated fatty acids and/or mixed polyglycerides of medium chain saturated fatty acids and long chain saturated fatty acids and, optionally, triglycerides of medium chain saturated fatty acids. The composition is safe for food sanitation, has excellent oxidation stability and lubricating property and a suitable degree of viscosity and cloud point as well as a high viscosity and a low temperature fluidity which cannot be attained by MCT and is favorably utilized as lubricating oil for food processing machines and tools and agricultural machines and tools.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 53 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines which comprises a polyglyceride of a medium chain saturated fatty acid and/or a polyglycerides of a mixed fatty acid comprising a medium chain saturated fatty acid and a long chain saturated fatty acid and, optionally, a triglyceride of a medium chain saturated fatty acid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 37 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the polyglyceride of a medium chain saturated fatty acid is a polyglyceride of a fatty acid having 6 to 10 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the polyglyceride of a medium chain saturated fatty acid is a polyglyceride of caproic acid, heptylic acid, caprylic acid, nonylic acid or capric acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 41 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the medium chain saturated fatty acid as a component of the mixed fatty acid is caproic acid, heptylic acid, caprylic acid, nonylic acid or capric acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 40 words

Claim 6
Dependent Claim 45 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the mixed fatty acid is a compound prepared by saponification of an extremely hardened oil which is prepared by hydrogenation of vegetable oil and fat or animal oil and fat.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 51 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the mixed fatty acid is a compound prepared by saponification of an extremely hardened oil which is prepared by hydrogenation of soy bean oil, rapeseed oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, corn oil or coconut oil.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the mixed fatty acid is a compound prepared by saponification of an extremely hardened oil which is prepared by hydrogenation of coconut oil.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 42 words
An oil and fat composition for food processing machines as claimed In Claim 1 wherein the mixed fatty acid is a compound prepared by saponification of an extremely hardened oil which is prepared by hydrogenation of lard, beef tallow or fish oil.
