Buy oleic Acid Radiacid 0212 (Belgium)

Oleic acid is a viscous, colorless liquid, tasteless and odorless. It has another name – elaic or 9-octadecene monounsaturated acid. It is produced by processing vegetable oils unsuitable for use in food, followed by fractionation of the mixture and reusable recrystallization.

Oleic acid was first synthesized in the early 19th century by the French organic chemist Chevrel. The natural starting material for production can be sunflower oil, rapeseed, soy, mustard, some animal fats (beef, pork). The substance olein is also known – the ester of glycerin and oleic acid.

Physico-chemical properties

It is an oily liquid that is oxidized under harsh conditions by potassium permanganate with the cleavage of a double bond, forming a mixture of azelaic and pelargonic acids, under mild conditions, when oxidized by permanganate, a mixture of stereoisomeric dioxystearic acids is formed. It is hydrogenated to stearic acid.

The alkali metal salts of oleic acid are highly soluble in water and are used in the textile industry (oleic soap). The lead salt of oleic acid, unlike the lead salts of saturated fatty acids, is soluble in ether, this difference in solubility is based on the method of isolating oleic acid from a mixture of acids obtained by saponification of natural fats.

Properties

The product does not dissolve in water. It actively interacts with organic solvents without disintegrating into crystals.

It is an important chemical component in the human body. It is produced by the liver. It is present in large quantities in subcutaneous fat.

The properties of this element are highly appreciated by physicians, as it is responsible for the most important functions of the body:

• regeneration of damaged tissues in case of injury and burns;
• control of insulin levels in the blood;
• is a building material for vessels;
• promotes the elimination of free radicals;
• increases immunity;
• affects the condition of the skin, nails, hair.

Purpose

This type of acid is harmless in contact with human skin, does not dissolve in water. Alcohol, acetone, chloroform, ether can be used for removal. During operation, it must be taken into account that when interacting with oxygen and ultraviolet light, the substance oxidizes and darkens. Therefore, oleic acid should be stored in an opaque, tightly closed container. You can buy oleic acid in the company “ILEM” at a bargain price and in excellent quality.

Scope of application

• in the chemical industry: paint and varnish products, emulsifiers, detergents, various lubricants are manufactured with its participation;
• in the food industry: it is a part of flavoring substances;
• in pharmaceuticals: in the manufacture of vitamin, hormonal and hypolipidermic drugs;
• When processing metals: a thin layer of substance covering the surface of a solid metal part greatly facilitates the processing process (threading, drilling, milling, etc.).

In addition, it is in demand in cosmetology, textile and petrochemical industries, in the production of building materials, soap making.

Product Advantages

Analogues of oleic acid, such as tallow oil and naphthenic acids, have a strong foaming effect, but have a relatively low resistance to oxidation.
