Castor Oil

Castor Oil

Castor oil is a natural, non-toxic, and biodegradable oil extracted from the seeds of the castor plant (Ricinus communis). It is widely used in the textile industry for its lubricating, softening, and emulsifying properties. Due to its unique chemical structure, castor oil is a key ingredient in textile processing, helping improve fabric quality, dyeing efficiency, and fiber flexibility.

Castor oil is a natural, eco-friendly, and versatile textile additive used for fabric softening, lubrication, waterproofing, and dye enhancement, making it essential for high-quality textile processing.

Castor oil is mainly used as a lubricant, softener, and emulsifier in textile finishing processes. It enhances fabric flexibility, prevents static buildup, and acts as a binding agent for textile coatings and dyes. Additionally, hydrogenated castor oil (HCO) is used in textile formulations to provide a smooth, non-greasy finish to fabrics.
