Applications : Castor oil serves as an industrial raw material for the manufacture of
number of Castor oil derivatives(HCO, 12 H S A, RIC ACID),
Leather Industry, Textile Industry, Resin Manufacturing, Paints,
Cosmetics, etc.
CAS Number:
8001-79-4
Castor oil is obtained from the fruit seed of castor (Ricinus communis L.) a large shrub that grows mainly in India, Brazil and China. The seed has an oil content of 40-50%. The quality manly used is first pressed, known as fist special grade (FSG), it is a light-colored liquid, yellowish, with a characteristic odour and high viscosity.
It is the only oil containing fatty acid ricinoleic characterized by the presence of an OH group (more than 80%) which gives rise to the properties that make castor an exclusive oil.
Moreover the high reactivity of the OH group (hydroxyl) leads to a high range of products such as dehydrated castor oil, hydrogenated castor oil, 12-hydroxystearic acid, sebacic acid, ricinoleic acid. This is an oil wit flexibility and ductility and It is mainly used for the manufacturer of industrial resins, plastics, elastomers, dielectric, rubber products in general.

Turkey Red Oil (TRO) is one of the derivatives of Castor Oil, also generally known as Sulfated Castor Oil. TRO easily disperses in water, has long shelf life and is known for purity. Owing to these qualities, it is highly used in the manufacturing of many industrial products and organic manures. TRO is also rich in ricinoleic acid.
Turkey Red Oil (TRO) is an anionic surfactant; it is readily biodegradable and has excellent thickening, binding and surface properties. TRO is a viscous golden reddish liquid which is readily soluble in Water and Ethanol. TRO is compatible with a wide range of materials and is stable over a wide pH range.
This water soluble oil retains the moisturising properties of castor oil.
It is used in Adhesives, Paper, Printing, Leather tanning, Textile - surfactants and wetting agents, Levelling and dispersing agent for acid and dispersed dyestuffs , Metalworks and multiple other industries.

Castor Oil is produced by refining commercial grade castor oil by bleaching and filtering process. Refined Castor Oil is further used for the production of valuable industrial chemicals. It is also used as a laxative.https://www.go4worldbusiness.com/uploads/members/Global_exporterJ1/cropped/thumbnails/200x200-3be61e62f30fdf100f58262c8ca7ca4cf381cecb.jpg?1579778705017
Castor oil is a vegetable oil pressed from castor beans The name probably comes from its use as a replacement for castoreum.
Castor oil is a colourless to very pale yellow liquid with a distinct taste and odor. Its boiling point is 313 °C (595 °F) and its density is 961 kg/m3. It is a triglyceride in which approximately 90 percent of fatty acid chains are ricinoleates. Oleate and linoleates are the other significant components.
Castor oil and its derivatives are used in the manufacturing of soaps, lubricants, hydraulic and brake fluids, paints, dyes, coatings, inks, cold resistant plastics, waxes and polishes, nylon, pharmaceuticals and perfumes.
Skin and hair care
Castor oil has been used in cosmetic products included in creams and as a moisturizer. It also has been used to enhance hair conditioning in other products and for supposed anti-dandruff properties.
Our Premium Black Castor Oil is a natural oil derived from castor beans through a traditional roasting and cold-press extraction process. Revered for its therapeutic properties, it is commonly used for its moisturizing and rejuvenating effects on skin and hair.
