Essential Oil

An essential oil is a concentrated, hydrophobic liquid containing volatile aromatic compounds extracted from plants. It may be produced by distillation, expression, or solvent extraction. Essential oils are used in perfumery, aromatherapy, cosmetics, incense, medicine, household cleaning products, and for flavoring food and drink. They are valuable commodities in the fragrance and food industries.

Essential oil is also known as volatile oil and ethereal oil. It may also be referred to as "oil of" the raw plant material from which it was extracted, such as oil of clove. The term essential is intended to convey that the oil is an essence of the plant it is extracted from, and not in the more common sense of being indispensable.

Essential Oil Extraction

In order to release and collect the essential oil and hydrosol from the plant, the relevant part of the plant is expressed, solvent extracted, or steam distilled. Expression is used primarily to obtain essential oils that come from fruit peels, such as grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) essential oil. Solvent extraction is necessary for some essential oils that would be destroyed by hot water and steam, such as jasmine (Jasminum officinale) essential oil, or those that are not sufficiently volatile to be extracted by steam distillation, such as benzoin (Styrax tonkinensis) essential oil.

Most oils, however, are obtained by steam distillation, where steam is passed through the botanical material, releasing the volatile aromatic compounds when the heat causes the plant?s cell walls to burst. The essential oil molecules and steam are then cooled, resulting in condensation. Since oil and water are not mutually soluble, the non-water soluble fraction (the essential oil) is easily separated from the water-soluble fraction (the hydrosol or hydrolate) by pouring off the top layer or draining the bottom layer through a spigot in the collection vessel.

Essential Oils Uses

Pure essential oils have a wide range of therapeutic benefits. The method applied can effect the results you receive. First of all, please remember that almost no essential oil should be applied neat (undiluted) to the skin. "Normal dilution" is 2.5%, ie, 15 drops of the essential oil or synergistic blend to one ounce of carrier oil. Less is more when we speak of these powerful healing essences.

Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine, in which healing effects are ascribed to the aromatic compounds in essential oils and other plant extracts. Many common essential oils have medicinal properties that have been applied in folk medicine since ancient times and are still widely used today. For example, many essential oils have antiseptic properties. Many are also claimed to have an uplifting effect on the mind. The claims are supported in some studies and unconfirmed in others.
