Characterization and modification of castor oil extracted from the newly malaysian produced castor beans

Vegetable oils, either edible or non-edible, are widely used in huge number of applications in industry. Ricinus communis (castor plant) is one of the non-edible vegetable oil and its usage in many industries as a raw material and additives is rapidly growing. In this research, the Malaysian newly p...
