ANIMAL FATS Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Animal fats are derived from the tissue of animals and are composed primarily of triglycerides. They are used in cooking, food production, and the manufacture of soaps, candles, and biodiesel. Common sources of animal fats include beef tallow, lard, and poultry fat. While generally safe, they can become rancid and should be stored properly. Proper handling and storage are essential to maintain their quality and prevent spoilage.
