ADEG S.R.L. is a leading company in the chemical-pharmaceutical and dietary-food sector that deals with the production and sale of ricinoleates.

Ricinoleates are a family of inorganic salts of ricinoleic acid, an unsaturated fatty acid found mainly in castor oil. These compounds can occur in the form of esters or salts, such as sodium ricinoleate or zinc ricinoleate. The main industrial areas of use of ricinoleates are:

• Polyurethane foam industry: used as anionic surfactants.
• Cosmetic industry: used in creams, lotions and hair products for their emollient properties, keeping the skin soft and moisturized.
• Pharmaceutical industry: umployed in ointments and creams for topical treatments due to their soothing properties.
• Food and lubricant industry: used as additives to improve the consistency and stability of food products and as components of lubricants.

POTASSIUM RICINOLEATE: surfactant and an emulsifying agent used primarily in detergents and personal care products. It promotes the formation of stable emulsions and dispersion of oils and fats in aqueous solutions and is also used as an additive in formulations of detergents (hair, teeth), lubricants and other industrial products.

SODIUM RICINOLEATE: similar to potassium ricinoleate, it is a surfactant and an emulsifier and is mainly used in personal care and cosmetic products, such as soaps, detergents, and creams. It also promotes cleansing and emulsifying action, helping to maintain miscibility of hydrophobic ingredients with water, and in the pharmaceutical industry it is used for its anti-inflammatory properties.
