Natural castor oil was chemically reconstructed to extend the carbon chains by means of iso-reaction so as to improve the rheological behavior, by way of increasing the viscosity index and decreasing the pour point. The rheological and tribological characteristics of the reconstructed castor oil were comparatively investigated with those of the natural castor oil and several other vegetable oils and a mineral oil. The friction and wear test results on a four-ball machine indicate that the chemically reconstructed castor oil has considerably improved rheological and tribological properties as compared with the natural castor oil. It shows a greatly increase viscosity index and largely decreased pour point, which makes it applicable to low temperature lubrication. The chemically reconstructed castor oil even shows better tribological behavior than pentaerythritol ester or di-iso-capryl sebacate. However, it is still needed to increase the oxidation stability of the reconstructed castor oil.

본 연구에서는 polycaprolactone diol, castor oil과 4,4'-methylene dicyclohexyl diisocyanate 를 소프트 도메인으로, dimethylol butanoic acid를 내부 유화제로, trimethylamine을 중화제로 사용하여 다른 분자량을 가지는 prepolymer를 기초로 castor oil 기반의 수분산 폴리우레탄을 성공적으로 합성하였다. 분자량 변화에 따른 기계적인 물성 변화(UTM), 표면의 친수성 확인(contact angle), castor oil 유무에 따른 표면개질 변화(FE-SEM) 등을 평가 분석하였다. Castor oil 기반의 수분산 폴리우레탄의 경우 표면 친수성 향상 및 개질 변화를 기대할 수 있으며, 다양한 접착제 분야에 적용될 유망한 후보 물질로 여겨질 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

본 연구에서는 lipase를 이용해서 ricinoleic acid를 대량생산하기 위해 피마자유의 완전가수분해 조건을 찾고자 하였다. 널리 알려진 lipase CR, lipase CC, lipase PP를 대상으로 피마자유의 가수분해의 가능성을 시험하고, 유기용매를 사용함으로써 가수분해도를 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 일반적으로 lipase의 활성을 감소시키는 극성용매의 경우 피마자유의 가수분해에 있어서도 효소의 활성을 감소시켰고, 물과 섞이지 않는 hydrophobic solvent가 피마자유의 가수분해도를 크게 증가시키는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 isopropyl ether의 효과가 가장 크며, 조건에 따라 가수분해도를 두 배 이상 증가시킨다는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 유기용매를 사용함으로써 pH의 영향을 바꾸거나 감소시킬 수 있다는 사실도 확인하였다. 용매와 물의 부피비에 의해서 가수분해가 영향을 받는다는 사실과 특히 유기용매보다는 물의 양에 절대적으로 영향받는다는 사실을 발견하였다. 하지만, 물과 유기용매의 부피비와 함께 lipase와 피마자유의 무게비도 매우 중요하다는 것을 확인하였다. 30$^{\circ}C$에서 isopropyl ether를 사용할 경우 무게 비로 2 wt%일 때는 약 82%, 4 wt% 이상의 lipase CC나 lipase CR을 사용하면 피마자유가 완전히 가수분해되는 사실을 발견하였다.

Objectives: Post-term pregnancy is a condition associated with increased maternal and fetal complications. Administration of castor oil causes cervical stimulation by increasing the production of prostaglandins. We examined the effects of castor oil on cervical ripening and labor induction through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: The search process was performed to obtain relevant articles from databases including Pubmed, Cochrane library, Scopus, Science direct, SID, Iran Medex, and Google Scholar using the English keywords of cervical ripening, post-term, castor oil, labor induction, Bishop score, and pregnancy considering all possible combinations without time constraints and their Persian equivalents from national databases. Results: A total of eight related articles from the 19 primary studies were extracted and systematically reviewed. According to a cumulative chart, the difference in the post-intervention Bishop score was statistically significant (standard mean difference [SMD]: 1.64, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.67-2.11, p = 0.001), indicating an effect of castor oil on increasing the Bishop score. In addition, the difference in labor induction was statistically significant after the intervention (odds ratio: 11.67, 95% CI: 3.34-40.81, p = 0.001), indicating an effect of castor oil on increasing the odds ratio of labor induction (experience of vaginal delivery). Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed that oral administration of castor oil is effective for cervical ripening and labor induction. Midwives should closely monitor pregnant women with prolonged labor and collaborate with obstetricians to employ castor oil as a safe intervention to induce cervical ripening and labor to prevent undue caesarean surgery.

The comparative detergency of Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution near the first critical micelle concentration (CMC) was measured by means of a 131 I-labelled castor oil as a soil. More than 95% radiochemical purity of 131 I-labelled castor oil was obtained using potassium lidide as a carrier. Polyester test fabric was soiled with 131 I-labelled castor oil, and washed in a conventional washing apparatus mounted on appropriate devices. Fabric radioactivities were measured before and after washing by a scintilation counter. Near the first CMC, the detergency of SDS was increased with decreasing of surface tension of SDS. It was also shown that 131 I-labelled castor oil was useful for studying the detergency of SDS.

Internally plasticized PVC was prepared via chemical reaction of azide PVC and alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester. The chemical structure of alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester and internally plasticized PVC was characterized with FT-IR and $^1H$ NMR. Properties of internally plasticized PVC, including thermal stability, tensile tests and resistance to extraction in different solvents, was investigated. The results showed that alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester, as internal plasticizer of PVC, not only decreased the $T_g$ of PVC from $84.6^{\circ}C$ to $41.6^{\circ}C$ efficiently, but also presented no plasticizer loss in five different solvents. The tensile tests showed that elongation at break and tensile strength of internally plasticized PVC was 353.8% and 18.1 MPa. The internally plasticized PVC has potential application in replacing the traditional PVC material in PVC products with high durability.

본 연구에서는 폴리우레탄을 위한 친환경 폴리올 합성을 위하여 피마자유 기반의 폴리올을 합성하였다. 피마자유의 2차 알콜에 다른 촉매 없이 무수말레산을 이용하여 카르복실기를 도입하고, 이를 1차 알콜로 전환하기 위하여 아미노알콜($H_2N$-R-OH) 유도체를 반응시켜 친환경 폴리올을 제조하였다. 다양한 비율의 피마자유와 무수말레산의 반응이 시험 되었으며, 전체 반응은 상대적으로 낮은 공정온도와 무촉매 반응을 기반으로 수행되었다. 긴 곁가지가 도입되어 유동성을 가지고 있는 피마자유 기반의 천연폴리올이 기존의 합성폴리올과 가장 우수한 상용성을 나타내었다.

Red jabon wood is a potential fast-growing species for veneer, furniture, and many other wood products, but its durability is very low. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of castor bean oil and heating on boron leaching, dimensional stability, and resistance to decay fungi in treated jabon wood. Red jabon wood was preserved with boron solutions containing 5% boron (boric acid, borax, or borax-boric acid). Following that, castor bean oil impregnation and heating were used as posttreatments. Furthermore, all the wood samples were tested in terms of leaching, dimensional stability, and resistance against Schizophyllum commune and Fomitopsis palustris fungi. This study discovered that boron compounds, castor bean oil, and heating treatments influenced the leaching, dimensional stability, and resistance of red jabon wood to decay fungi. The double impregnation of boric acid or borax and castor bean oil, followed by heating at 160℃, significantly reduced water absorption and leaching while increasing the dimensional stability and resistance of red jabon wood against the two tested decay fungi.

Several lipases of commercial grade were screened to catalyze the methanolysis of castor oil, and an immobilized Candida antarctica (Novozym 435) had the highest activity among the lipases tested. To enhance the yield of methyl ricinoleate, several reaction parameters were optimized. The optimum temperature was $50^{\circ}C$, and the original water content of lipase was sufficient to maintain the activity of lipase, and additional water supplied inhibited the methanolysis of castor oil. Because the lipase was deactivated by methanol, the reaction was tested by three-step addition of 1 molar equivalent of methanol to the oil. However, the oil was not completely converted to its methyl esters. The final reaction mixture using 3 molar equivalents of methanol to the oil consisted of $70\%$ methyl ricinoleate, $18\%$ monoricinoleate, $11\%$ diricinoleate, and trace triricinoleate at the equilibrium state. The yield of methyl ricinoleate was $97\%$ at 6 molar ratio of methanol to the oil with 300g of castor oil and 6g of immobilized Candida antarctica at $50^{\circ}C$ within 24 h.

Undenatured castor oil and trimethylolpropane (TMP) were used to obtain bio-based water-based polyurethane. Isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) was incorporated into the formulation to obtain a transparent film, and ethylenediamine (EDA) was used for chain extension. In order to measure the change in physical properties according to the contents of castor oil and TMP, each tensile strength, elongation, and abrasion resistance test was conducted. As the contents of castor oil and TMP increased, the tensile strength increased, the elongation decreased, and the surface hardened strongly as the respective contents increased.
