High Purity & Reliable QualityWith a remarkable purity level of 99% and an acid value below 2, these castor oil derivatives are ideal for demanding industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Their low moisture (max 0.3%) and insoluble impurities (max 0.5%) guarantee product stability and consistent results. Each batch is rigorously refined to ensure top-grade qualities.
Diverse Industrial ApplicationsThese derivatives find broad use in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, lubricants, textiles, paints, as well as in surface coatings and plasticizer production. Their solubility in alcohol and ether, coupled with being insoluble in water, makes them highly adaptable in formulating high-performance products across many sectors.
Safe Storage & HandlingFor optimal stability and extended shelf life, the product should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Packaged in robust 50 kg or 200 kg drums, castor oil derivatives are conveniently managed for bulk transport and safe storage, making them an efficient choice for exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers.
FAQs of Castor Oil Derivatives:
Q: How should castor oil derivatives be stored to maintain quality?
A: Castor oil derivatives must be stored in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. Proper storage ensures their purity, low moisture content, and effectiveness over the products two-year shelf life.
Q: What industries commonly utilize castor oil derivatives and why?
A: Industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, lubricants, textiles, paints, and plastics use castor oil derivatives for their high purity, chemical stability, and compatibility as emulsifiers, plasticizers, and stabilizers.
Q: When is castor oil derivative preferred over other lubricants or emulsifiers?
A: When specific solubility (insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol/ether), low acid value, and mild odor are required, castor oil derivatives are preferred, especially for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and high-grade industrial formulations.
Q: Where are castor oil derivatives sourced and processed?
A: These derivatives are processed from high-quality castor seeds in India, where they are refined using chemical methods to meet rigorous industrial and pharmaceutical standards.
Q: What is the benefit of using castor oil derivatives with a flash point of 225C?
A: A flash point of 225C ensures safety and stability during industrial processes, making the product suitable for applications requiring high-temperature resistance without risking decomposition or ignition.
Q: How are castor oil derivatives applied in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products?
A: They are used as emulsifiers and stabilizers, enhancing product texture, shelf life, and formulation versatility due to their mild odor and high purity, making them safe for sensitive uses.
