Turkey Red Oil (Sulphated Castor Oil)
Turkey Red Oil, also known as Sulphated Castor Oil, is a water-soluble derivative of castor oil produced through a sulfonation process using concentrated sulfuric acid. It results in a highly viscous, amber-colored liquid that acts as an excellent emulsifier, wetting agent, and dispersing agent. Unlike natural castor oil, it disperses easily in water, making it ideal for applications in textiles, cosmetics, agriculture, and industrial formulations. Its biodegradable and non-toxic nature also makes it eco-friendly and suitable for sensitive formulations.
