Castoroil Dehydrated
Wat is Castoroil Dehydrated?
Castoroil Dehydrated is a drying oil obtained from castor oil by removing water and partially oxidizing the unsaturated fatty acids. This oil is known for its ability to polymerize when exposed to oxygen, forming a hard, film-forming layer. Castoroil Dehydrated is widely used in the paint, coating, and industrial sectors where durability and a protective finish are required.

How is Castoroil Dehydrated produced?
Production begins with raw castor oil, which is dehydrated through heating and chemical treatment. This process removes water and increases the degree of unsaturation in the fatty acid chains, giving the oil its drying properties. The result is a stable product suitable for industrial formulations and coating applications.
Function of Castoroil Dehydrated
Thanks to its drying properties, the oil polymerizes when exposed to air, forming a protective film. In paint and coating applications, this results in a durable, flexible, and water-resistant layer. Additionally, the oil can serve as a thickening agent or binder in various technical formulations.
Castoroil Dehydrated in various industries
-
Paints and coatings: used as a drying oil in oils, varnishes, and lacquers.
-
Technical sector: applied in lubricants, inks, and adhesives due to its film-forming properties.
-
Chemical production: used as a raw material for alkyd resins and other polymers.
