Oleic Acid
PasandTM OA100 Oleic Acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid found naturally in various vegetable fats. It is a clear, light yellow to amber liquid at room temperature with a characteristic fatty odor. Due to its single double-bond structure, it provides an optimal balance between low pour points and good oxidative stability, making it a highly versatile chemical intermediate
Oleic Acid Details
Features And Benefits
- Easily saponified with alkalis (like KOH or NaOH) or neutralized with alkanolamines (like TEA) to form highly stable water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions.
- Provides high film strength on metal surfaces, significantly reducing friction in industrial machinery and metal shaping applications
- Derived from renewable natural sources, offering an eco-friendly alternative to petroleum-based fluids.
Application
- Widely used as a friction modifier, oiliness agent, and corrosion inhibitor in cutting oils, wire drawing, and rolling fluids
- Used as a wetting, softening, and waterproofing agent in leather processing and textile finishing oils.
- Used as an emulsifier in automotive polishes and shoe polishes to improve water resistance and gloss.
- Used in Textile finishing preparation, Printing inks, Metal polishes, Floatation process and Cleaning and Furnishing Care Products
