Polyricinoleic Acid Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Polymerised Ricinoleic Acid
- Condensed Ricinoleic Acid
- Ricinoleic Acid Estolide
- PRA
Polyricinoleic acid is a self-condensed estolide polyester of ricinoleic acid catalogued for industrial raw-material enquiries in Malaysia. Also called polymerised or condensed ricinoleic acid, it is an oligomeric product distribution rather than the monomeric acid and does not share the identity of ricinoleic acid itself.
The material is generally a viscous pale-yellow to amber liquid, with grades selected by acid value, hydroxyl value, viscosity and degree of condensation. These parameters should be matched to the next reaction or formulation step, particularly when the material is intended for onward esterification.
Applications include manufacture of polyglycerol polyricinoleate, pigment and filler dispersants, printing inks, lubricant and metalworking additives, plasticisers, polyurethane polyols and personal-care ester derivatives. Polyricinoleic acid is an intermediate for PGPR production, not PGPR itself, and the two products should not be cross-specified.
Send the target grade or analytical profile, application, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation, delivery arrangements and quotation validity are confirmed for the stated requirement.

Polyricinoleic Acid applications
Common questions about polyricinoleic acid
Is polyricinoleic acid the same as ricinoleic acid?
No. Polyricinoleic acid is a self-condensed oligomeric estolide of ricinoleic acid, while ricinoleic acid is the monomeric fatty acid and should be specified separately.
Is polyricinoleic acid the same as PGPR?
No. Polyricinoleic acid can be used as an intermediate in polyglycerol polyricinoleate manufacture, but PGPR is a downstream ester with a different product identity.
How are polyricinoleic acid grades compared?
Buyers typically specify acid value, hydroxyl value, viscosity and degree of condensation according to the next processing step. Include the intended reaction or formulation duty with the enquiry.
