USE
Elemi oil and Elemi resinoid are obtained fromexuded gumresin of Canarium luzonicum Miqu. (Burseraceae) or closely related species, trees growing in the Philippines. The resin is extracted with a solvent to form the resinoid, which is a yellow to orange mass of high viscosity.The oil is produced by steam distillation of the gum resin and is a colorless to light yellow liquid.<br/> d<sup>20</sup><sub>20</sub> 0.850–0.910; n<sup>20</sup><sub>D</sub> 1.4720–1.4900; α20 D +44 ° to +85 ° .<br/> The major components of elemi oil are limonene (40–72%), ??-phellandrene (10–24%), and the sesquiterpene alcohol elemol (1–25%). In the 1990s, 500 t/yr of elemi resin was collected; today, the quantity dropped to 150–200 t/yr. Both the resinoid and the oil have a fresh, citrus-like, peppery odor and are used predominantly in soap perfumes.
