Description

Fatty Acids, Rape-Oil is a complex mixture of fatty acids derived from rapeseed oil, primarily consisting of oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids. This natural, renewable feedstock is crucial for producing high-performance intermediates in the chemical manufacturing sector. It is extensively utilized across industries such as lubricants, surfactants, polymers, and personal care for its versatile chemical functionality and sustainable profile.

Application

• Lubricant & Grease Formulation: Acts as a key raw material for manufacturing metallic soaps and bio-based lubricant additives.
• Surfactant & Detergent Production: Serves as a vital feedstock for synthesizing amphoteric, anionic, and nonionic surfactants.
• Polymer & Resin Industry: Used in the production of alkyd resins, polyamides, and plasticizers for coatings and adhesives.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Employed in the manufacture of emulsifiers, emollients, and soap bases.
• Chemical Intermediates: A fundamental building block for producing esters, amides, and other fatty acid derivatives.
• Metal Working Fluids: Used as a component in formulations for cutting, grinding, and drawing oils.

Quality Control

Our Fatty Acids, Rape-Oil is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure consistent composition, acid value, iodine value, and color. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) for long-term preservation and to minimize quality degradation. Optimal storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C.
