OLIVE OIL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Olive oil is a natural oil extracted from olives, the fruit of the olive tree. It is rich in monounsaturated fats, particularly oleic acid, and is widely used in cooking, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Olive oil is known for its health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease and providing antioxidant properties. It is categorized into different grades, such as extra virgin, virgin, and refined, based on the extraction method and quality. Olive oil is also used in traditional medicine and skincare products for its moisturizing and healing properties.
