Sulfated/Sulfonated Castor Oil
Sulfonated castor oil
Sulfated castor oil, also known as turkey-red oil, represents one of the earliest chemical derivatives of castor oil.
It is prepared by addition of concentrated sulfuric acid at a controlled rate to castor oil over a period of several hours with constant cooling and agitation of the reaction mass to maintain a temperature of 25-30oC. After acid addition is complete, the reaction mass is washed then neutralized using an alkali solution or an amine.
Being an anionic surfactant, it is an active wetting agent.
It is used in formulating lubricants, softeners, dyeing assistants, in agriculture as organic manure, in paper industry for defoaming, in pharmaceuticals as undecylenate and in paints, inks etc.
Owing to its extensive applications, sulfonated castor oil is having supply-demand gap 5000-15000 MT per year.
