Uses In food preparation
Refined sunflower oil is used for low - to - extremely - high - temperature cooking. As a frying oil, it behaves as a typical vegetable
triglyceride. Unrefined sunflower oil is a traditional salad dressing in Eastern European cuisines. Sunflower oil is also an ingredient in sunflower butter. Methods for cooking snack foods, such as potato chips or French fries, may use sunflower oil.
Seed meal
Extraction of sunflower oil leaves behind the crushed seeds, typically referred to as seed meal, which is rich in protein and dietary fiber and used as an animal feed, fertilizer or fuel.
Supplements
Sunflower oil dietary supplements have been marketed for treatment of eczema, but research has shown it is not medically
effective.
As fuel
Sunflower oil can be used to run diesel engines when mixed with diesel in the tank. Due to the high levels of unsaturated fats,
there is higher viscosity in cold temperatures.
Cosmetics industry PEG - 10 sunflower glycerides, a pale yellow liquid with a "slightly fatty" odor, are the polyethylene glycol derivative of the mono - and diglycerides derived from sunflower seed oil with an average of 10 moles of ethylene oxide. PEG - 10 sunflower glycerides are commonly used in cosmetic formulations.
Horticulture
In the European Union, and United Kingdom (since Brexit), sunflower oil is sprayed onto tomato crops as a fungicide to control
powdery mildew from Oidium neolycopersici. For this use it is classified as a 'Basic Substance' that can be used on both
organic and conventional farms.
