Product Family - Castor Oils, Hydrogenated
The addition of hydrogen changes castor oil to a hard, brittle, wax known as Castorwax®, or Opalwax. The saturation of the double bonds converts each hydroxyoleic chain to hydroxystearic. The resulting triglyceride is characterized by extreme insolubility, very narrow melting range, lubricity, excellent electrical properties, pigment and dye dispersibility and coupling action for immiscible waxes, resins, rubbers and polymers.
