Generic Name:
erucic acid content of edible oils and fats, especially those derived from rapeseed and mustard.
Product Description:
Erucic acid, a 22-carbon monounsaturated fatty acid (22:1ω9), is found in rapeseed and mustard oils, and is also known as cis-13-docosenoic acid. It is a major component of rapeseed and mustard oils, and its presence has led to selective breeding for low-erucic acid varieties for food use.
Product Application:
Industrial Applications:
- Lubricants: Erucic acid and its derivatives (like erucamide and erucate esters) are used in lubricants for continuous steel casting, formulated lubricants, and rubber additives.
- Surfactants: Amides of erucic acid are used as surfactants.
- Plastics and Polymers: Erucic acid can be used to produce nitrogen derivatives such as behenyl amine (a corrosion inhibitor) and disubstituted amides (plasticizers).
- Coatings: Erucic acid can be used in the production of coatings.
- Detergents: Erucic acid is used in the production of detergents.
- Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals: Erucic acid is used in the production of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
- Ozonolysis: Oxidative ozonolysis of erucic acid produces dibasic acids like brassylic acid and monoacids like pelargonic acid.
- Nitrogen Derivatives: Erucic acid can be used to produce nitrogen derivatives such as behenyl amine, a corrosion inhibitor, and erucamide, a slip and antiblocking agent for plastic films.
