Sebacic Acid | Bio-based Dicarboxylic Acid | CAS 111-20-6
Overview
Sebacic Acid is a highly versatile, linear ten-carbon dicarboxylic acid appearing as a white crystalline powder or flake. Uniquely distinguished in the chemical industry for its sustainable origins, it is predominantly derived from natural castor oil through a high-temperature cleavage process. This bio-based profile makes it a highly sought-after “green” building block for environmentally conscious manufacturing.
Product Description
Sebacic Acid | Bio-based Dicarboxylic Acid
Product Overview
Sebacic Acid is a highly versatile, linear ten-carbon dicarboxylic acid appearing as a white crystalline powder. Uniquely distinguished in the chemical industry for its sustainable origins, it is predominantly derived from natural castor oil. This bio-based profile makes it a highly sought-after "green" building block for environmentally conscious manufacturing.
At Shandong Yinglang Chemical Co., Ltd., established in 2016, we supply premium-grade Sebacic Acid (≥ 99.5%) engineered for advanced polymerization and esterification. Characterized by its superb cold resistance and thermal stability, our product is the foundational monomer for high-performance polyamides (Nylons), premium plasticizers, and synthetic aviation lubricants.
Technical Specifications (COA)
We maintain strict quality control to ensure optimal reactivity in polymerization processes. Typical specifications for our Premium Grade:
| Purity | ≥ 99.5% |
|---|---|
| Melting Point | 131.0 - 134.5°C |
| Moisture / Water | ≤ 0.3% |
| Ash Content | ≤ 0.03% |
| Color (APHA) | ≤ 15 |
Key Applications
- High-Performance Polyamides: The critical monomer used to synthesize bio-plastics like Nylon 610 and Nylon 1010, offering exceptional moisture resistance for automotive components.
- Cold-Resistant Plasticizers: Reacted to produce Dioctyl Sebacate (DOS), imparting extreme low-temperature flexibility to PVC cables and synthetic rubbers.
- Synthetic Lubricants: The base acid for synthesizing complex esters used in aviation turbine oils and high-performance compressor fluids.
- Corrosion Inhibitors: Formulated into antifreeze and metalworking coolants as a highly effective, eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor.
🌱 Elevate Your ESG Profile with Green Chemistry
As global regulations tighten around petrochemical derivatives, switching to Sebacic Acid allows resin and lubricant formulators to rapidly increase the renewable carbon content of their products. Derived from sustainable castor crops rather than fossil fuels, our Sebacic Acid helps your company meet stringent ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) targets while maintaining elite material performance.
Bulk Packaging Options
As a stable, non-hazardous powder, we offer cost-effective and secure packaging for ocean freight:
- 500 KG / 1000 KG Heavy-duty Jumbo Bags (FIBC) with discharge spouts (Recommended for polymer plants).
- 25 KG Multi-wall Kraft paper bags with PE inner liners.

FAQ
Q1: What documents and certifications do you provide?
A Standard shipment includes COA (Certificate of Analysis) and MSDS (SDS). We also provide ISO 9001 certification and support third-party inspections like SGS or BV upon request.
Q2: Do you provide custom synthesis or formulation services?
A Yes. If you have specific purity requirements or a unique formulation, our R&D team can provide custom synthesis and adjust the stabilizers/inhibitors to meet your technical specifications.
Q3: What are your terms of payment?
A
For Orders ≤ $1,000: 100% in advance.
For Orders > $1,000: 30% T/T in advance, and the balance before shipment or against the copy of B/L. Irrevocable L/C at sight is also acceptable for bulk orders.
Q4: How long is your price valid?
A Chemical prices fluctuate due to the changes in raw material costs and exchange rates. Please contact our sales team for the latest real-time quotation.
Q5: What packaging and shipping ports are available?
A
We normally ship from Qingdao, Shanghai, or Ningbo.
Standard packaging includes 200kg Drums or 1000kg IBC Totes. We ensure strict safety compliance for both general and hazardous chemical cargoes.
Q6: It's my first time importing chemicals — can you help?
A Absolutely. Importing chemicals requires specific documentation. Our experienced logistics team will assist you with the entire process, including handling customs clearance documents and arranging the most suitable shipping method.
