Unsaturated Oleic Acid

Unsaturated Oleic Acid

Molecular Formula: C₁₈H₃₄O₂
Molecular Weight: 282.46
Unsaturated oleic acid is a natural plant-based fatty acid. At room temperature, it is a light yellow oily liquid with good fluidity. It is mainly used in fields such as ore dressing flotation, metal processing lubrication, and surfactant preparation. Due to its excellent surface activity, it is widely used in the oxidation ore flotation industry.

Product advantages

 

It has a sufficient content of unsaturated double bonds, strong froth-forming and adsorption capabilities, and is resistant to low temperatures without solidification; it has stable purity, few impurities, good dispersibility, and a fast reaction rate in the pulp; it is environmentally friendly, compatible with various processes, and has a more favorable overall cost of use.

 

FAQ

 

Q1: What should I do if it gets solid in winter?

A: You can slightly heat it to room temperature, stir it evenly, and then use it normally.

Q2: What should I pay attention to when storing?

A: Store it sealed and in a dark place to prevent oxidation and deterioration due to prolonged exposure to air.

Q3: Can it be mixed directly with other medications?

A: It is recommended to conduct a small-scale trial first to confirm the compatibility before using it in large quantities.
