单词	elemi
释义	elemi /ˈɛləmi / noun [mass noun] An oleoresin obtained from a tropical tree and used in varnishes, ointments, and aromatherapy. This resin is obtained from several trees in the family Burseraceae, in particular Bursera simaruba (producing American elemi) and Canarium luzanicum (producing Manila elemi). Because of its drying and conserving properties, Elemi was one of the aromatics used by the ancient Egyptians for embalming their dead.... Ethyl alcohol is a comparatively poor solvent for elemi, but some perfumers prefer to extract only once with one or two parts of ethyl alcohol. Origin Mid 16th century: perhaps from Arabic al-lāmī.
