Oleic acid CAS#112-80-1

Basic Information

Oleic acid
CH₃(CH₂)₇CH=CH(CH₂)₇COOH

Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid commonly obtained from oils and fats. It is typically an oily, colorless to pale yellow liquid, practically insoluble in water but soluble in oils and many organic solvents. Uses include soaps, emulsifiers, synthetic esters, lubricants and metalworking fluids. It also supplies feedstock for plasticizers, resin precursors, mineral processing and industrial cleaning formulations.

product description

Appearance and Composition: Oleic acid (CAS 112-80-1) is a monounsaturated fatty acid, typically supplied as a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid. Industrial grades generally appear pale yellow and may contain other fatty acids, depending on the feedstock and manufacturing process.


Solubility and Processing: Oleic acid is practically insoluble in water but soluble in many organic solvents and oils. It can undergo esterification and neutralization to produce fatty acid esters and oleate salts.


Metalworking and Lubrication: Used in metalworking fluids, lubricant formulations, and rust-preventive systems, oleic acid can support lubrication, wetting, and surface protection when incorporated into suitable formulations.


Surfactants and Synthetic Esters: Oleic acid serves as a raw material for soaps, emulsifiers, surfactants, and synthetic esters. Its derivatives are used in cleaning products, industrial lubricants, plasticizers, and resin formulations.


Grade Selection: Key purchasing parameters include oleic acid content, fatty acid composition, acid value, iodine value, color, and moisture. Specifications should be confirmed against the intended application before ordering.


Handling and Storage: Oleic acid is combustible and may cause skin or eye irritation. Prolonged exposure to air can lead to oxidation, rancidity, and changes in color or odor. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from heat, ignition sources, direct sunlight, and strong oxidizing agents.


Products Description of Oleic acid CAS#112-80-1

Oleic acid (CH₃(CH₂)₇CH=CH(CH₂)₇COOH) is the most abundant natural monounsaturated fatty acid, derived from oil and fat hydrolysis. Its glycerides are the main constituent of olive oil, palm oil and lard; industrial grade contains 7–12% saturated fatty acids and trace linoleic acid. A colorless oily liquid, it has defined specific gravity, solidification/boiling points, refractive index, iodine value and acid value as specified.


Product Application of Oleic acid CAS#112-80-1

Oleic acid is a core industrial organic chemical. It is used to manufacture epoxy oleate plasticizers and azelaic acid resin precursors, and finds applications in pesticide emulsification, mineral processing, industrial cleaning, office supplies and laboratory biochemical/elemental detection reagents.
