Description
An oil obtained from a water or solvent extraction of fish or fish meal. The oil content of fish can vary from about 1 to 15 % with cold water fish usually having a higher oil content than warm water fish. Most fish oil is obtained from cod, halibut, shark, herring, sardine, and salmon. Fish oil is purified and deodorized prior to use as a food product, lubricant, candle, leather dressing, soap, and plasticizer. It is occasionally added to commercial paints to decrease costs. Fish oil flows poorly and can produce a stipple finish.
