Palm kernel oil has a wide range of applications in the field of chemical production raw materials, and its upstream and downstream related products are numerous. The following are some of the main upstream and downstream associated products:

1. Upstream products:

(1) Palm tree: Palm kernel oil is extracted from the fruit of palm trees, so palm trees are the main upstream products of palm kernel oil.

(2) Processing equipment: The extraction of palm kernel oil requires a variety of processing equipment, such as presses, centrifuges, etc., so the production and manufacturing of these equipment is also the upstream industry of palm kernel oil.

2. Downstream products:

(1) Biodiesel: Palm kernel oil can be used as a raw material for biodiesel. Through chemical processes such as transesterification, it is converted into fatty acid methyl ester to produce biodiesel.

(2) Food additives: Palm kernel oil is rich in nutrients, such as vitamin E, unsaturated fatty acids, etc., which can be used as food additives for making biscuits, bread, chocolate and other foods.

(3) Cosmetics: Palm kernel oil has a good moisturizing and moisturizing effect, so it is often used to make various cosmetics, such as moisturizer, shampoo, shower gel, etc.

(4) Chemical raw materials: Palm kernel oil can also be used as a chemical raw material for the production of soap, glycerin, lubricants and other products.

To sum up, the upstream and downstream related products of palm kernel oil are very extensive, involving many fields, such as bioenergy, food, cosmetics, chemicals, etc.
