NOW Pine Essential Oil (2 Pack)

It’s commonly harvested for aromatherapy use, as well as a supplement in alternative treatment. It can be used as a disinfectant, sanitizer, microbicide, virucide, or insecticide. It’s also utilized as a lubricant in pricey and small clockwork instruments. It is a potent herbicide that works by altering the waxy cuticle of plants, causing desiccation. Pine oil is separated from other pine products such as turpentine, a low-boiling fraction of pine sap distillation, pine tar, and rosin, a resin left over after turpentine distillation. Terpene hydrocarbons, ethers, and esters may also be present. The specific composition is determined by a number of factors, including the pine variety used and the portions of the tree employed.
