Overview

About Castor Derivatives in Australia

Castor derivatives are oleochemicals produced from castor oil, itself pressed from the seeds of Ricinus communis. This range covers 12-hydroxystearic acid (12-HSA), a white crystalline flake, and hydrogenated castor oil (HCO), a white waxy solid. They serve as rheology modifiers, thickeners, lubricants and processing aids across personal care, coatings, polymers and lubricants.

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

Australia imports these materials for water treatment, mining, coatings and processing, with industrial introduction regulated under AICIS (formerly NICNAS). Sydney (Port Botany), Melbourne, Brisbane and Fremantle are the main ports; air freight runs 5-8 days and ocean 18-28 days.
