Dehydrated Castor Oil

Listing ID #192339

Shb agro product is a leading supplier of commercial grade dehydrated castor oil. The dehydration process is carried out at about 250â°c in the presence of catalysts (e.g., concentrated sulphuric acid, activated earth) and under an inert atmosphere or vacuum.
detailed information :
under this condition of dehydration, the hydroxyl group and adjacent hydrogen atom from the c-11 or c-13 position of the ricinoleic acid portion of the molecule is removed as water. This yields a mixture of two acids, each containing two double bonds but in one case, they are conjugated. The presence of an acid containing conjugated double bonds results in an oil resembling tung oil in some of its properties. Thus, castor oil, which is non-drying, can be treated and converted into a semi-drying or drying oil known as dehydrated castor oil.
