Ucuuba Butter – Unrefined

RidhSa Lipids Unrefined Ucuuba Butter is a naturally derived seed fat obtained from Virola surinamensis, a tree native to tropical South America. The fat is recovered from cleaned seeds and clarified or filtered without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization. Ucuuba butter is generally firm and rich in saturated fatty-acid residues, particularly myristic acid, making it useful as a structuring component in soap bars, lip balms, body butters and other solid personal-care products. The natural grade may exhibit characteristic colour and odour, and its texture and melting behaviour depend on origin, extraction and storage. Bulk B2B supply should be supported by confirmed botanical identity, an agreed specification and lot-specific quality documentation.

Overview

Botanical Name	Virola surinamensis (Rol. ex Rottb.) Warb. (verify botanical identity for the supplied lot)
Cas#	Verify the exact substance identifier with the supplier SDS and INCI documentation; no CAS number independently confirmed for this grade.
Color	Cream to pale yellow or light brown; naturally variable by batch
Method Of Extraction	Seeds are cleaned and dried, then the fat is recovered by a documented mechanical or heat-assisted extraction method and clarified or filtered. Unrefined grade does not undergo subsequent neutralization, bleaching or deodorization; confirm the actual process with the supplier.
Constituents	Seed fat is commonly reported as rich in myristic acid, with additional lauric, palmitic, oleic and other fatty-acid residues. Exact proportions are variable; obtain batch GC-FAME data before declaring percentages or compositional specifications.
Solubility	Insoluble in water; blends with compatible fats and oils when melted; soluble in suitable nonpolar organic solvents.
Specific Gravity	Not established as a universal release specification; measure density of molten fat at a stated temperature.
Flash Point	Not routinely determined for this nonvolatile fat; request a measured, method-specific value if required.

Benefits

Provides structure and firmness to solid formulations; contributes emollience and a protective skin feel; supports soap and balm manufacture; blends with softer oils to adjust texture; offers a plant-derived alternative for customized botanical fat systems.

Uses

Soap bars, lip balms, body butters, lotion bars, solid moisturizers, hand and foot balms, massage bars, haircare products and customized cosmetic butter blends.

What is unrefined ucuuba butter?

It is fat obtained from Virola surinamensis seeds without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization, although clarification and filtration may be performed.

What makes ucuuba butter different from shea butter?

Ucuuba butter is generally harder and has a different fatty-acid composition, often with substantial myristic acid; shea butter is typically richer in stearic and oleic acids.

What is the melting point of ucuuba butter?

The melting range depends on the seed-fat composition and processing. Request a measured batch melting or slip point instead of relying on a universal value.

Can ucuuba butter be used in cosmetics?

Yes, provided the supplied grade meets applicable cosmetic quality and safety requirements and the finished product is evaluated for compatibility, stability and safety.

Does unrefined ucuuba butter have a natural odour?

It may retain a characteristic fatty or seed-like odour. Odour and colour can vary by lot, so request a representative sample and agreed sensory specification.
