Castung^® 103 G-H (Dehydrated Castor Oil) is an unbodied dehydrated castor oil that is light colored and low viscosity.  It is a triglyceride very high in linoleic acid content and no linolenic acid content resulting in light color and a non-yellowing property in its dry film.  It can be used with pure and modified phenolic resins to obtain fast-dry coatings, alkali resistance for can linings, corrosion resistant coatings, traffic paints, ink vehicles and marine finishes.  Castung^® 103 G-H is an excellent plasticizer for petroleum hydrocarbon resins and is preferred for alkyd and copolymer resins.
