Product Specifications

Additional Information

The Polymerized (bodied) medium/high viscosity dehydrated castor oils are known for their faster processing and drying times than Castung® 103 G-H. They are modifier resins that impart increased brushability and gloss in exterior coatings. Castung® 403 Z-3 is ideal as an aluminum paint vehicle because of its fast drying, flexibility and low acid value.Non-drying castor oil is converted into a drying oil when the hydroxyl group and adjacent hydrogen are removed from each ricinoleic acid chain. An additional double bond is created, resulting in two double bonds on each chain, of which 25% are conjugated.The result is a light colored, odorless, drying oil known as dehydrated castor oil. Dehydrated castor oil (DCO) is well known for its non-yellowing and outstanding color retention characteristics. Varnishes, alkyds and resin systems based on DCO are noted for fast-dry, flexibility, excellent chemical resistance, adhesion to metals, high gloss and water-resistance. The Castung® dehydrated castor oils are the most controllable conjugated oils for kettle reactions and are frequently used to modify other oils and fatty acid systems.
