Description

Hydrogenated castor oil is a hydrogenated form of castor oil that is insoluble in water. Hydrogenated castor oil has been used as an antimicrobial agent for various detergent compositions, pharmaceutical preparations, and topical formulations. This compound has also been used as a polymerization aid for the production of insoluble polymers, including polyurethane elastomers. The hydrogenation process changes the chemical composition by increasing the number of hydroxyl groups and reducing the number of unsaturated bonds. These changes can affect how the molecule interacts with other molecules and its solubility in water. Low energy activation energies have been reported for hydrogenated castor oil compared to other oils such as olive or sunflower oils.
