Overview

About 12-Hydroxystearic Acid in UAE

12-Hydroxystearic acid (12-HSA) is a saturated hydroxy fatty acid derived from castor oil, produced as a white crystalline flake or powder. Its hydroxyl group and long fatty chain make it an effective structurant, thickener and rheology modifier, and a key raw material for lithium and complex greases, cosmetic sticks and coatings.

Zentish Exim supplies 12-HSA sourced from qualified Indian producers, with certificates of analysis and safety data sheets. India is the world's leading source of castor and castor derivatives, which underpins dependable supply. Grade and specification are reported per batch on request.

The UAE is a fast-moving re-export and manufacturing hub. Castor specialties and CNSL derivatives move through the region into coatings, lubricants and industrial applications, with an emphasis on speed and clear documentation.
