About Castor Derivatives in South Africa
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.
