Methyl Ricinoleate

Methyl Ester of Castor Oil is used in place of Castor Oil in the production of hydraulic fluids. Phenol- Formaldehyde molding resins.

Methyl Ricinoleate ( C19H36O3) : CAS no. 141-24-2

COMMON NAME : Methyl Ricinoleate, Ricinoleic acid methyl ester

It is an organic compound in which the hydroxyl functional group (-OH) is bound to a carbon atom. In particular, this carbon center should be saturated, having single bonds to three other atoms.

  1. Methyl Ester of Castor Oil is used in place of Castor Oil in the production of hydraulic fluids.
  2. Methyl Ricinoleate is found to be of use in ethyl  cellulose, nitrile rubber, nitrous and polyvinyl butyral lacquers.
  3. Methyl Ricinoleate ( methyl ester of ricinoleic acid, ricinoleic acid methyl ester ) is used in several lubricating formulations, cutting oils and gear oils, motor fuels, cylinder lubricants etc
  4. Methyl Ricinoleate ( methyl ester of ricinoleic acid, ricinoleic acid methyl ester ) delivers additional benefits of anti- rusting and corrosion.
