General Uses Top

Suggest a correction!

Common products:
Seed oil is the primary documented product, obtained through drying and pressing of the seeds. Lundell (1942) reported this as the main potential use.

Industrial and craft applications:
The oil is classified as a semi-drying oil based on its moderate iodine value, making it suitable for soap manufacturing and industrial oil applications where rapid polymerization is not required.

Food and beverages (non-medicinal):
The seed oil is documented as a potential edible oil source. Lundell noted its mild, nutty flavor profile.

Properties relevant to use:
Lundell characterized the oil as having a mild, nutty odor and a semi-drying property, indicating a moderate iodine value (likely 110–140 g I2/100g based on contemporary classification) enabling its use in both edible and industrial applications.
