Dehydrated castor oil (DCO) is a yellow, oily liquid with a distinct odor that's used in a variety of industries: Drying oil, DCO is a drying oil with similar properties to tung oil. It gives dry paint films a fine gloss, toughness, flexibility, adhesion, and chemical and water resistance. Applications - DCO is used in paints, varnishes, enamel coatings, corrosion resistant coatings, marine paints, wire enamels, resins, inks, and more. It can also be used as a primary binder for enamels, house paints, sealants, caulks, and inks. Production DCO is made by removing about 5% of the chemically combined water from castor oil.

Product Description

Dehydrated castor oil (DCO) is a drying oil that is categorized as a chemical industry product:

Chemical industry: DCO is used in the production of coatings, resins, inks, and varnishes.

Coating: DCO is used to improve the quality of house paints, enamels, caulks, sealants, and inks.

Coloring agents: DCO is used in the production of coloring agents. 

DCO is made from castor oil, which comes from the fruit seed of the castor shrub. It has a light color and is semi-drying. DCO is a drying oil that polymerizes or "dries" after being applied to a surface to form a tough, adherent, impervious, and abrasion resistant film.

DCO is also being investigated as a component in biofuel production. Its high oil content and favorable chemical properties make it a viable raw material for manufacturing biodiesel.
