Hydrogenated Castor Oil (HCO)

Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a solid, waxy material created when hydrogen molecules bond with regular castor oil. This transformation converts the liquid oil into a solid, brittle material. The result appears as a pale white to cream-colored solid at normal temperatures.

This end product is available in two primary forms: flakes and powder. The flake version resembles irregular shavings similar to candle wax pieces, and hydrogenated castor oil powder looks like ultrafine particles that dissolve easily into formulations.

Product Variants of Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Modi Oil Mill produces industry-grade Hydrogenated Castor Oil, which is used in various sectors:

  • HCO-40 - This variation liquefies at 85-88°C and performs excellently in beauty products requiring medium-level hardness.
  • HCO-60 - With a liquefaction point of 88-90°C, this grade delivers superior reliability for medicinal preparations.
  • PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil – It’s an advanced derivative that supports easy blending of ingredients in water-based products.
  • Flake Grade HCO - Delivers clean, uniform blends for stable and effective formulations.
  • Powder Grade HCO - Microscopic granules that disperse rapidly and simplify handling in dry formulation workflows.
