Turpentine (AKA spirit of turpentine, oil of turpentine, wood turpentine, gum turpentine, and white spirit) is technically a blend of terpenes, mainly alpha-pinene and beta-pinene. It is still made from organic materials collected from the processing of pine pulp. The specific process leading to its production is the Kraft process where wood pulp destined to become paper is cooked in a strong caustic solution until the cellulose fibers can be collected. The rest of the organic material is distilled for organics removal. Turpentine is one of the products.

What is rectified turpentine?
There are several types of turpentine. Rectified turpentine is, arguably, a bit of a misnomer when it comes to 'true' turpentine. While regular or distilled turpentine is the sap from a tree (normally pine) tapped in a similar manner to maple syrup, rectified turpentine goes through an entirely different process. Rectified turpentine is made by literally mashing up trunk, limbs and leaves of a tree, then steaming out the spirits. Because of this, rectified turpentine has water, and therefore excess oxygen which can cause undesirable drying patterns in projects or art.
