Castor Oil is a natural oil obtained from the seed of the Ricinus Communis, or castor plant. The oil obtained from the seeds of this plant is a very useful raw material in many industries like soap, surface coatings, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, perfumes, greases and lubricants etc. Also the oil is used in a large number of medicines. That is why the seeds and oil of this plant make very important and valuable commodities that are traded in the market. The primary sources of the castor bean are India, Brazil and China. Scientific and historical records reveal that the chemical nature and composition are remarkably uniform regardless of origin.
There are two main technical grades of Castor Oil:
Pale pressed, which is
obtained from the first pressing of the
castor bean. Pale Pressed Castor Oil it
is light in color and low in acidity. Pale
Pressed Castor Oil is used in industrial
products that require oil with lighter color
and/or lower acidity. With proper certification,
the pale oil may also be acceptable for
medicinal, pharmaceutical or cosmetic use.
