Application:
Oleic acid is an essential nutrient in animal food. Its lead salts, manganese salts, and cobalt salts are paint drying agents; Copper salt is a preservative for fishing nets; Aluminum salts can be used as fabric waterproofing agents and thickeners for certain lubricants. Oleic acid can be epoxidized to produce epoxy oleate (plasticizer). Produce azelaic acid (raw material for polyamide resin) through oxidative cracking.
The woolen industry is used to prepare anti-static agents and lubricating softeners. The wood industry is used to prepare water-resistant paraffin emulsion. The preparation of azelaic acid through oxidation can also be used as a pesticide emulsifier, lubricant, printing and dyeing assistant, industrial solvent, metal mineral flotation agent, mold release agent, oil hydrolysis agent, for the preparation of carbon paper, typing paper, ballpoint pen oil, and various oleates. As a chemical reagent, used as a chromatographic reference sample, and for biochemical research, it is used to determine calcium, ammonia, copper, and to determine magnesium, sulfur, etc. Activate protein kinases in liver cells.
A 75% alcohol solution of oleic acid can be used as a rust remover.
