Product Family - Castor Oil Derived Acids
These are mono-basic acids derived from castor oil for use in industrial applications or as chemical intermediates. The hydroxy fatty acids are P®-10 with a double bond in the 9-10 position and its saturated analog 12-Hydroxystearic acid. The 9-11 acids are the conjugated drying oil acid produced from dehydrated castor oil and is principally linoleic acid (89%). The pyrolytic decomposition of castor oil yields Undecylenic acid, an 11 carbon acid with vinyl unsaturation.
