Application

Sebacic Acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid which is a derivative of castor oil. Sebacic Acid is largely used in the manufacturing process of Nylon 6-10. Sebacic Acid can be used as a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids and as a complexing agent in greases. In particular, Sebacic Acid is used as a thickener in lithium complex grease. In addition, Sebacic Acid can be used as an intermediate in the production of aromatics, antiseptics and painting materials as well as in the synthesis of polyamide and alkyd resins. Sebacic Acid can also be found in plasticizers, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, cosmetics, and candle manufacturing. In cosmetics, Sebacic acid can be used as a buffering ingredient for pH adjustment or a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of various esters.
