Heading 1512 : Sunflower-seed, safflower or cotton-seed oil and fractions thereof, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified.
(A) SUNFLOWER‑SEED OIL
This oil is obtained from the common sunflower (Helianthus annuus) and is a light golden‑yellow oil. It is used as a salad oil and in margarine and lard substitutes. The oil has semi‑drying properties which render it useful in the paint or varnish industries. (B) SAFFLOWER OIL
The seeds of the safflower (Carthamus tinctoris), which is a very important dye plant, furnish a drying, edible oil. This is used in foods and medicines, for alkyd resins, paints and varnishes. (C) COTTON‑SEED OIL
This is the most important of the semi‑drying oils and is obtained from the kernels of the seeds of several species of the genus Gossypium. Cotton‑seed oil has a wide range of industrial uses, e.g., in leather dressing, in the manufacture of soap, lubricants, glycerol and waterproofing compositions, and as a base for cosmetic creams. The pure refined oil is of great value as a salad or cooking oil and for making margarine and lard substitutes. Subheading Explanatory Note. Subheadings 1512.11 and 1512.21
