Heating the oil in the presence of catalysts such as clay's and metal oxides, phosphoric acid, and sulfuric acid, is where dehydration is carried out. Partially Dehydrated Castor Oil has a characteristic odor and is a yellow oily liquid. It has an acid value of 5 mg KOH/g max and can be used as a hydrophobic and plasticizer component in paints, coatings, and moldings. view less |
