Thermal Process of Castor and Plant Based Oil
Castor oil is an oil derived from castor seed from a plant Ricinus communis. The versatility of castor oil is highly attributed by 12-hydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid (ricinoleic acid) and its functional group. It is an oil that cannot be consumed by a human.

Enzymatic biosynthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides
Candida rugosa lipase has been shown to have sufficient activity to catalyse the enzymatic synthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides in a batch reactor. The water requirements of the reactor change during the reaction: at the beginning of the process a minimum amount of water is necessary but, later, the reaction mixture must be dried out to obtain an ...

Phase separation on ricinoleic acid freezing [PDF]
Phase separation material essentially influence storage capacity or heat release. Ricinoleic acid is potential to be used as a heat storage material. However, the nature of the phase separation of the material has not been studied yet. Therefore, this research was aim to determine the nature of the material.
