Overview of Sebacic Acid
Sebacic Acid (C₁₀H₁₈O₄) is a dicarboxylic acid derived from castor oil and is widely used in polymer production, lubricants, cosmetics, and chemical manufacturing. It appears as a white crystalline solid with excellent solubility in alcohol and low solubility in water. Its versatility and chemical stability make it a crucial raw material in multiple industrial applications.
Sebacic Acid is primarily used as a building block for polyamides, plasticizers, and specialty chemicals. Its biodegradability and compatibility with polymers make it suitable for eco-friendly and high-performance industrial formulations.
