What is CBD?

CBD is one of hundreds of cannabinoids found in cannabis plants , as well as terpenes (which produce distinctive smells), flavonoids (antioxidants), chlorophyll and other substances.

By law, CBD produced by industrial hemp factory must contain less than 0.3% THC before they can be sold as cannabis-based CBD. Therefore, once the plant is harvested, the plant material must be extracted from the dried plant.

What is THC?

• Tetrahydrocannabinol，Delta-9 THC，be generally writed as THC .
• THC is the main active ingredient of cannabinoid and is found in resin glands of the female hemp flower stem. It’s believed that it’s the natural compounds which is used to protect hemp from pests，and it's also the main source of the unique pleasure that comes with ingesting cannabinoids.
• In the raw form of hemp, THC is present in the form of an acid called THCA. Male cannabis plants also produce a small amount of THC, but only a tiny amount.
• In organic chemistry, cannabinoids like THC are known as secondary metabolites, which help the cannabis plant defend against parasites, viruses, bacteria and other foreign enemies. THC also has antibacterial properties on human body, and other cannabinoids such as CBG and CBD also have antibacterial properties.
• As ordinary recreational marijuana consumers, when we talk about marijuana, we are mainly talking about the various feelings of THC in the human body.

What is Full Spectrum Cannabidiol Oil?

• Full Spectrum Cannabidiol Oil is an extract of Hemp leaf without further purification and separation. Apart from CBD ( Cannabidiol ), it also contains terpenes, other cannabinoids, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, phytonutrients and other substances extracted from cannabis plants.
• Full-spectrum CBD oils are usually thicker, darker and have a taste of hemp plants. Because they contain the integrity of natural cannabinoids, whole plant cannabis extracts contain small amounts of THC without the hallucinogenic risk of THC.

What is Broad Spectrum CBD Oil?

• Broad spectrum CBD is the full spectrum CBD without THC - additional extraction steps have been taken to remove any THC or at least most of THC, so it contains less than 0.3% of THC and essentially trace amounts, if any.
• Broad-spectrum CBD still contains all other cannabinoids except THC. It also contains terpenes, flavonoids, fatty acids and amino acids as well as other plant ingredients, lacking only THC.

What is Cannabidiol Isolate?

Cannabidiol Isolate refers to fine white powder containing more than 99% CBD which is the separation of CBD from cannabis extract and the removal of other cannabis components such as cannabinoids and terpenes.Cannabidiol isolate, containing only one cannabinoid CBD. It has no smell or taste, and can be used to make various CBD derivative products, such as food, drinks, skin care products, etc.

What is Pure CBD Isolate Oil?

Pure CBD Isolate Oil is separated from the flowers and leaves of industrial hemp and purify CBD crystals, with the purity of CBD up to 99.9%, and then dissolved CBD crystals in Oil solvents.Pure CBD Isolate oil contains only CBD and does not contain any of the other ingredients found in industrial hemp.Since CBD crystals are colorless and odorless, the color and taste of pure CBD oil depends on the solvent and other additives used.Commonly used solvents are coconut oil (MCT oil), olive oil, sesame oil and VG/PG.

How to extract cannabinoids？

Solvent extraction method----Solvent extraction usually takes ethanol and butane as solvents and is extracted from cannabis plant excipients. The combination of the two is good, simple and easy to operate, and can be operated at home.Under the condition of guaranteeing extraction rate and purity, solvent is used in the whole process of extraction, which avoids the use and residue of toxic organic solvents such as petroleum ether and ensures safety of product .

Flow chart

The materials are transported from the feed tank to the jacketed main evaporator. The main evaporator is continuously heated. The built-in scraper evenly scrapes the materials into a layer of flowing liquid film for instant evaporation. The light component materials begin to vaporize and adsorb on the built-in condensing coil, flow into the receiving bottle along the outer wall of the condensing pipe, and the heavy component materials flow into the receiving bottle along the inner wall of the main evaporator.

EG:The goals of project design

The quality of flowers and leaves：CBD+CBDA content≥7%，THC content＜0.30%，water content ＜10%
