Ginger is also available in several other forms including crystallized, candied and pickled ginger. Fresh ginger can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three weeks if it is left unpeeled. Stored unpeeled in the freezer, it will keep for up to six months. Dried ginger powder should be kept in a tightly sealed glass container in a cool, dark and dry place.
Tall oil fatty acids are used in dimer acids, alkyd resins, oilfield chemicals, metalworking fluids, liquid cleaners, textile chemicals, fuel additives, construction chemicals, rubber and tire, metallic stabilizers, ore flotation, and fatty derivatives.
The type of fatty acid that predominates determines whether a fat is solid or liquid, and whether the dietary fat is characterized as saturated or unsaturated. Fats such as tallow, lard and butter, and vegetable oils such as palm, palm kernel and coconut oils, which are harder at room temperature, contain higher levels of saturated fatty acids. They are considered saturated fats.
