In appearance, it consists of white to cream color crystals or powder with a melting point of 80 °C and boiling point of 306 °C. ==Sources== At 9%, it is a major component of Ben oil (or behen oil), which is extracted from the seeds of the Ben-oil tree (''Moringa oleifera''). It is so named from the Persian month ''Bahman'', when the roots of this tree were harvested.〔http://www.numericana.com/answer/culture.htm〕 Behenic acid is also present in some other oils and oil-bearing plants, including rapeseed (canola) and peanut oil and skins.
