Hydrogenated Castor Oil
Hydrogenated Castor Oil (HCO), also known as castor wax, is a solid, waxy derivative obtained by the hydrogenation of castor oil. It appears as a white to off-white, brittle, wax-like solid with a mild odor. The hydrogenation process saturates the unsaturated bonds in castor oil’s fatty acids, resulting in a product with enhanced melting point, oxidative stability, and hardness. HCO retains excellent emollient and lubricating properties while exhibiting improved resistance to oxidation and rancidity. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, plastics, coatings, and industrial applications for its functional versatility and compatibility.
Hydrogenated Castor Oil
Hydrogenated Castor Oil, also known as castor wax, is a hard, brittle, and high-melting-point wax derived by the hydrogenation of pure castor oil. This white to off-white, odorless substance is non-toxic and insoluble in water but dispersible in surfactant systems. Its primary component is hydrogenated ricinoleic acid triglyceride, and it is prized for its excellent lubricating, emulsifying, thickening, and consistency-enhancing properties.
Due to its stability, non-reactivity, and film-forming capability, Hydrogenated Castor Oil is widely used in cosmetics, personal care, pharmaceuticals, industrial lubricants, coatings, plastics, and more. It improves product texture, enhances emulsion stability, and provides moisture retention in skincare applications.
