Murumuru Butter – Unrefined

RidhSa Lipids Unrefined Murumuru Butter is a natural vegetable fat extracted from the kernels of the Amazonian murumuru palm, Astrocaryum murumuru. Produced without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization, it retains some of its natural colour and characteristic odour. Its triglyceride profile is notably rich in lauric and myristic fatty acids, distinguishing it from stearic-rich butters such as shea and kokum. Murumuru butter contributes firmness, emollience and conditioning properties to lip balms, body butters, hair masks, conditioners and solid personal-care products. Natural variations in appearance, melting behaviour and composition may occur according to origin, extraction and storage. Bulk supply is subject to agreed quality specifications and lot-specific documentation.

Overview

Botanical Name	Astrocaryum murumuru Mart. (botanical identification should be verified against the sourced lot)
Cas#	Confirm the precise CAS number and INCI identity against the supplier’s SDS; not independently verified for this unrefined grade.
Color	Ivory to pale yellow or light beige; natural batch variation
Method Of Extraction	Oil-rich kernels are mechanically pressed or processed using a documented extraction method, followed by settling or filtration. Unrefined grade does not undergo subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization; verify the actual extraction method for the offered lot.
Constituents	Triglycerides rich in lauric acid (commonly approximately 40–55%) and myristic acid (approximately 20–30%), with smaller proportions of oleic, palmitic, capric, stearic and other fatty acids. Ranges are indicative and vary by origin and test method; confirm with batch GC-FAME.
Solubility	Insoluble in water; blends with compatible vegetable oils and fats when melted; soluble in appropriate nonpolar organic solvents.
Specific Gravity	No universally verified release range for this grade; measure density of the melted fat at a stated temperature.
Flash Point	Not routinely determined for this nonvolatile vegetable fat; request a measured, method-specific value where needed.

Benefits

What is unrefined murumuru butter?

It is fat extracted from Astrocaryum murumuru seed kernels without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization; basic filtration may still be used.

How does murumuru butter differ from shea butter?

Murumuru butter is generally richer in lauric and myristic fatty acids, while shea butter is typically richer in stearic and oleic acids. Their textures and formulation behaviour differ.

Is murumuru butter suitable for haircare?

Yes. It is commonly used in conditioners and hair masks for its emollient and conditioning contribution, subject to formulation compatibility and performance testing.

What is the melting point of unrefined murumuru butter?

Melting behaviour is grade- and method-dependent; a range around 25–35°C is often cited, but a batch-specific slip point or melting range should be confirmed.

Does unrefined murumuru butter have an odour?

It can retain a mild characteristic nutty or fatty odour, with variation caused by origin, processing and storage. Request a representative sample and odour specification.
