SEBACIC ACID
Sebacic acid is white crystalline granular solid that is a derivative of castor oil formed by the cleavage of ricinoleic acid. It acts as a corrosion inhibitor by coating metal surfaces with a thin coating that restricts corrosive ions reacting with the metal surface.

Sebacic acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid with the chemical formula (CH2)8(CO2H)2. It is a white flake or powdered solid. Sebaceus is Latin for tallow candle, sebum is Latin for tallow, and refers to its use in the manufacture of candles. Sebacic acid is a derivative of castor oil.
Sebacic acid is used as a thickener and complexing agent to produce lithium complex greases. It is used to produce Sebacic acid is widely used to produce a salt derivative, the (di)sodium sebacate, which is a corrosion inhibitor. The main application of this salt is coolant (anti-freeze) fluids for aircraft, automotive and truck engines.
Sebacic acid is produced from Castor Oil by cleavage of ricinoleic acid, which is obtained from CASTOR OIL. Octanol is a byproduct. Sebacic acid is white crystalline granular solid that is a derivative of castor oil formed by the cleavage of ricinoleic acid. It acts as a corrosion inhibitor by coating metal surfaces with a thin coating that restricts corrosive ions reacting with the metal surface.
