The hydrolysis or alcoholysis of oils or fats form the basis of the oleochemical industry. not derived from genetically modified genetically modified Adjective (of an organism) having DNA which has been altered for the purpose of improvement or correction of defects genetically modified genetic adj [food etc] → crops. It costs 10% to 15% less than other vegetable- and animal- based slip agents. Typical use levels for both new products are 0.25% to 0.5%. Tel: (203) 573-2000, www.cromptoncorp.com |
