Turkey red oil (35%, sodium salt) is a sulfated castor oil derivative, historically one of the first synthetic surfactants developed for textile dyeing. This compound is notable for its ability to enhance the solubility of dyes in water, making it an essential agent in the textile industry. It is characterized by its unique structure, which includes a long hydrophobic tail and a hydrophilic sulfate group, allowing it to function effectively as a surfactant. The product is primarily used in various applications requiring wetting and dispersing properties, particularly in the dyeing of textiles and in formulation research.

Also known as Sulfated Castor Oil Sodium Salt.

Substance

Turkey red oil appears as an amber to brown viscous liquid with a density of 1.039 g/mL. It has a viscosity of approximately 1000-2000 cP at 25°C, indicating its thick consistency. The product is soluble in water, which is a key property that facilitates its use in dyeing processes. The boiling point of Turkey red oil is around 100°C, and it has a flash point of approximately 200°C, indicating it is relatively stable under normal conditions. The pH of a 1% aqueous solution is typically around 7-8, making it neutral to slightly alkaline.
