Sebacic acid has been used in the synthesis of:
• biodegradable and elastomeric polyesters [poly(glycerol sebacate)]
• novel bio-nylon, PA5.10[2]
• novel temperature-response hydrogel based on poly(ether-ester anhydride) nanoparticle for drug-delivery applications

Sebacic acid is normally made from castor oil, which is essentially glyceryl ricinoleate.
The castor oil is treated with caustic soda at high temperature, for example 250 °C, so that saponification, leading to the formation of ricinoleic acid, is followed by a reaction giving sebacic acid and octan-2-ol

Because of the by-products formed, the yield of sebacic acid is necessarily low, and in practice, yields of 50–55% (based on the castor oil) are considered to be good.

Sebacic acid may also be produced by an electrooxidation process developed by Asahi Chemical Industry in Japan (Yamataka et al., 1979), and also piloted by BASF in Germany.
It produces high purity sebacic acid from readily available adipic acid. The process consists of three steps. Adipic acid is partially esterified to the monomethyl adipate.
Electrolysis of the potassium salt of monomethyl adipate in a mixture of methanol and water gives dimethyl sebacate. The last step is the hydrolysis of dimethyl sebacate to sebacic acid.
Overall yields are reported to be about 85% (Castor Oil, 2015).

Sebacic acid is used for PA610.

Polyamide 1010 is the polycondensation product of 1,10-decamethylene diamine and 1,10-decanedioic acid (sebacic acid)

Sebacic acid (13) (Fig. 4.3), a naturally occurring fatty acid, is reported to increase insulin-dependent glucose uptake by L6 skeletal muscle cells up to 1.7-fold in a dose-dependent manner

Sebacic acid is a natural C10 liquid fatty acid, directly produced from castor oil. Our decanedioic acid has a high quality, a secure supply chain, and a natural origin.

High purity
100% of vegetal origin
Linear chain
Granules or powder forms
High reactivity to produce a wide range of esters

Sebacic acid offers a competitve solution in many applications:

To produce polymers
In industry: to produce plasticizers, lubricants, and corrosion retardants
In cosmetics: as buffering ingredient or as a chemical intermediate to produce a wide range of esters

Sebacic acid can be used directly in cosmetics formulation as a pH corrector (buffering).
In this case, the main applications are skin care (mainly face/neck care), and color cosmetics.

The sebacic acid is also widely used as a synthesis intermediate to produce sebacates esters such as DIPS or DIS (diisopropyl sebacate), DOS (diethylhexyl sebacate), DES (diethyl sebacate) and DBS (dibutyl sebacate).

These sebacate are used as: emollient, solvent, plasticizer, masking (reducing or inhibiting the basic odour of the product), film forming, hair or skin conditioning.
Generally, sebacate esters are claimed to enable a good penetration, give a non-oily and silky skin feel.
These esters are also recognized to be good pigment dispersant (DOS), be good sun protection factor (SPF) booster (DIPS blended), and prevent whitening in antiperspirant (DIPS).

The sebacic acid (DC 10), is widely used to produce a various range of plastics, and brings to those plastics a bio-based part.

DC 10 provides a good compromise in term of properties: better than those given by adipic acid and very close to those allowed by dodecanedioic acid or by azelaic acid.

The most famous application of sebacic acid in the plastics world is the manufacture of polyamides (PA 6.10, PA 4.10, PA 10.10, etc).
Compared to diacids with a lower carbon atom number (eg: adipic acid), the Sebacic acid provides better flexibility, ductility, hydrophobicity, and lower melting temperature.

The other types of plastics where sebacic acid is used are copolyamides, polyesters, copolyesters, alkyd resins, polyester, polyols, polyurethanes, etc.

Sebacic acid is widely used to produce a salt derivative, the (di)sodium sebacate, which is a corrosion inhibitor.
The main application of this salt is coolant (anti-freeze) fluids for aircraft, automotive and truck engines.

Sebacic acid is also a raw material to produce sebacate diesters (DOS, DBS, …), used in complexed greases or lubricants.
Generally, diesters are used as base oils for high performance lubricants (automotive, aerospace turbines, high reliability industrial hydraulics and compressor systems).

Moreover, sebacates have enhanced viscosity and excellent lubricity when compared with adipates.

These diesters offer major advantages (compared to mineral oils):

High viscosity index
Low temperature fluidity
Low pour points
Low volatility
High flash points
Low peroxide value
Good additive response
High thermal stability
Overall excellent lubricity
Oxidation resistance
Low coking characteristics

Abstract
Sebacic acid (SA) is an aliphatic ten-carbon dicarboxylic acid (1,10-decanedioic acid) with a variety of industrial applications, including the production of plasticizers, lubricants, cosmetics, and plastics.
Currently, SA is produced exclusively from alkaline pyrolysis of castor oil.
Herein, we present an environmentally friendly green route of SA production from plant oil-derived sources by microbial ω-oxidation.
We genetically engineered β-oxidation-blocked diploid yeast Candida tropicalis, and created an effective microbial cell factory with an increase of 46% in SA production by overexpression of genes involved in ω-oxidation of hydrocarbons compared to the original strain.
A biotransformation process of SA production from decanoic acid methyl ester was developed to overcome the challenges of high-density cell culture, substrate feed, substrate/intermediate toxicity, and foam generation.
Fed-batch production of engineered C. tropicalis resulted in a molar yield of above 98%, a productivity of 0.57 g L−1 h−1, and a final titre of 98.3 g L−1 in a 5-litre fermenter and the results were successfully reproduced using a larger scale 50-litre fermenter.
The produced SAs were successfully purified to >99.8% using acid precipitation and recrystallization.
Finally, bio-nylon 610 was successfully synthesized by polymerization of the purified SA with hexamethylenediamine and showed thermal properties very similar to those of commercially available nylon 610.
The processes developed and described in this study can be employed to produce and isolate SA for the synthesis of bio-nylons, using environmentally friendly procedures based on microbial biotransformation with potential industrial applications.

Sebacic acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid with the formula (CH2)8(CO2H)2.
It is a white flake or powdered solid. Sebaceus is Latin for tallow candle, sebum is Latin for tallow, and refers to its use in the manufacture of candles.

Sebaceus is Latin for tallow candle, sebum (tallow) is Latin for tallow, and refers to its use in the manufacture of candles.
Sebacic acid is a derivative of castor oil, with the vast majority of world production occurring in China which annually exports over 20,000 metric tonnes, representing over 90 % of global trade of the product.
In the industrial setting, sebacic acid and its homologues such as azelaic acid can be used in plasticizers, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, cosmetics, candles, etc.
Sebacic acid is also used as an intermediate for aromatics, antiseptics, and painting materials.

Decanedioic acid was named by Thenard LJ (1802) from the Latin sebaceus(tallow candle) or sebum (tallow) in reference to its use in the manufacture of candles.
Thenard LJ isolated this compound from distillation products of beef tallow.
In 1954, it was reported that it was produced in excess of 10,000 tons annually by alkali fission of castor oil.
Sebacic acid and its derivatives, as azelaic acid, have a variety of industrial uses as plasticizers, lubricants, diffusion pump oils, cosmetics, candles, etc.
It is also used in the synthesis of polyamide, as nylon, and of alkyd resins.
An isomer, isosebacic acid, has several applications in the manufacture of vinyl resin plasticizers, extrusion plastics, adhesives, ester lubricants, polyesters, polyurethane resins and synthetic rubber.

Sebacic acid reacts exothermically to neutralize bases, both organic and inorganic.
May react rapidly with aqueous solutions containing a chemical base and dissolve as the neutralization generates a soluble salt.
Can react with active metals to form gaseous hydrogen and a metal salt.
Such reactions are slow in the dry, but systems may absorb enough water from the air to allow corrosion of iron, steel, and aluminum parts and containers.
Reacts slowly with cyanide salts to generate gaseous hydrogen cyanide. Reacts with solutions of cyanides to cause the release of gaseous hydrogen cyanide.
May generate flammable and/or toxic gases and heat with diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercaptans, nitrides, and sulfides.
May react with sulfites, nitrites, thiosulfates (to give H2S and SO3), dithionites (SO2), to generate flammable and/or toxic gases and heat.
Can be oxidized exothermically by strong oxidizing agents and reduced by strong reducing agents.
May initiate polymerization reactions.

Purify sebacic acid via the disodium salt which, after crystallisation from boiling water (charcoal), is again converted to the free acid.
The free acid is crystallised repeatedly from hot distilled water or from Me2CO/pet ether and dried under vacuum. [Beilstein 2 IV 2078.]

Sebacic acid is a dicarboxylic acid obtained from the dry distillation of castor oil.
It is derived from castor oil.
Two molecules are needed to obtain a castor sebacic acid.

Castor oil is obtained from the fruit seed of castor (Ricinus communis L.) a large shrub that grows mainly in India, Brazil and China.

The seed has an oil content of 40-50%.

It is solid at room temperature and melts above 130 ° C.

Is in the form of white crystalline solid (powder or granules).

Growing demand for sebacic acid from automotive industry is one of the key factors for the growth of global sebacic acid market during forecast period.
Sebacic acid is used in the form of sebacate esters in automotive industries for manufacturing PVC films as it helps to provide properties such as low-temperature flexibility and crack resistance, which is anticipated to drive the growth of global sebacic acid market over the coming years.

In addition to this, several major automotive manufacturing companies are using sebacic acid as a coolant in automobiles which is projected to further spur the global sebacic acid market growth through 2025.
However, the availability of various substitutes of sebacic acid like adipic acid, and azelaic acid for various applications is a factor that can act as major impediment to the global sebacic acid market during forecast period.
The global sebacic acid market is segmented based on source, application, region and company.
Based on application, the market can be segmented into personal care & cosmetics, lubricants & greases, metalworking fluids, plastics, polymers and others.

Among them, the personal care & cosmetics sector dominated the market until 2019 and is projected to maintain its lead over the forecast period as well.
This growth is attributable to its use as a pH adjuster, firm filming agent, and fragrance enhancer in numerous products, which is likely to increase its demand in cosmetics industry, thereby boosting the growth of global sebacic acid market over the coming years.

Widely used for the production of a broad range of industrial products, such as plasticizers, candles, lubricants, hydraulic fluids and resins, sebacic acid has been in high demand over recent years.
Currently, its synthesis mostly relies on castor oil, which is a bio-based, renewable raw material, as the substance is extracted from Ricinus communis’ seeds.
This green aspect is one of the main reasons why sebacic acid production dominates castor oil’s industrial use, particularly in China – the second largest producer of this oil.

One of the most common synthetic routes to obtain sebacic acid involves the hydrolyzation of castor oil to obtain ricinoleic acid, which then undergoes an alkali fusion/cracking in the presence of phenol and sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
Once sebacic acid is purified, the resulting wastewater contains large quantities of the initial phenolic compound used.

Being a contaminant, phenols should be removed from wastewater and properly disposed of.
If the concentration of the organic compound is particularly high, the effluents are recalcitrant to conventional biological treatments in wastewater facilities.
Therefore, it is important for production facilities to conduct phenol extraction activities prior to discharging the effluents. Furthermore, manufacturers should also look at methods to recover or recycle phenol in their processes.

Lubricity Characterizations of Sebacic Acid Based Ester
The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of long-chain and branch alcohol on lubricity of sebacic acid based ester.
Since currently synthesis of a new lubricant to improve the lubricity properties and quality of lubricant is increasing, in this study, sebacic acid esters were synthesized by the conventional esterification method with some modification using sulfuric acid (SA) as catalyst.
Twelve samples of sebacic acid esters with different chemical structures were synthesized including di-2-octyl sebacate, didecyl sebacate, di-2 ethylhexanol sebacate, di-2-ethylbutyl sebacate and dioleyl sebacate. These diesters were tested in terms of their suitability as lubricant.
The results showed that the pour point, flash point and oxidation stability were affected by liner and branch of the alcohol used.
Di-2-ethylbutyl sebacate (D2EBS) and di-2-ethylhexanol sebacate (D2EHS) showed very low pour point at -44°C and -60°C respectively, while the same carbon number of dihexyl sebacate (DHS) and dioctyl sebacate (DOS) recorded high pour point at 8°C and 15 °C respectively.
These differences were due to the presence of the branching. DOS recorded the highest oxidative stability at 290°C.
However, there was a slight negative effect of the branching on the flash point.

Sebacic acid is a widely used industrial intermediate, with an annual global demand of around 20,000 metric tons.
In addition to its application in greases, sebacic acid is a key intermediate in engineering plastics, specialty adhesives and as a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids and longlife antifreeze formulations.

Sebacic acid also is used to make disodium sebacate (DSS). DSS is approved for use in greases for incidental food contact under CFR 21.178.3570.
Sebacate esters find application as low-temperature plasticizers, synlube base stocks, and in cosmetics as emollients and fragrance carriers.
As with azeleate esters, the sebacate esters are frequently used as liquid proxies for the corresponding acid in making greases.

SHIFTING MARKETS

Both sebacic acid and azelaic acid are oleochemical derivatives.
Azelaic acid is produced via the ozonolysis of oleic acid. The emergence of the biodiesel industry in North America, Europe and Asia has significantly increased the industrial demand for soy and corn oils, the principle sources of oleic acid. This has exerted upward price pressure on the key raw material for azelaic acid.

Sebacic acid is a castor oil derivative. It is produced via the cracking of ricinoleic acid, the primary fatty acid component of castor oil. In addition to being the raw material for sebacic acid, ricinoleic acid is an important raw material for the grease industry as it yields 12-hydroxystearic acid (12- HSA) upon hydrogenation.

Sebacic Acid-Powder is the result of a caustic fusion of castor oil.
Some major applications of Sebacic Acid are the manufacture of Nylon 6-10, a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids, and a complexing agent in greases.

Formulation 101: Lithium Complex Grease
Posted on October 15, 2018 – Product News

Lithium-Complex GreaseThe first use of grease dates back to ancient times, when man first used animal fats and vegetable oils to reduce friction.
Analysis of these crude lubricants shows that lime was sometimes mixed in as a thickener, making this the first complex grease.

The science of lubricating technology has come a long way since ancient times.
Simply put, lubricating grease is defined as a solid-to-semi fluid dispersion of a thickening agent in a liquid lubricant.
Beyond that different ingredients can be added to impart special properties.

Traditionally, metallic soaps such as calcium stearate, sodium stearate, and lithium stearate are used as thickeners.
Fatty acids such as lithium 12-hydroxystearate can also be used.
Lithium greases are by far the most popular grease worldwide, because they have excellent heat tolerance like the sodium greases and the water resistance of calcium greases.

Lithium Complex greases first entered the market in 1962.
According to NLGI International, Today Lithium Complex grease accounts for 42% of all North American Grease production.
Lithium Complex Greases are favored over traditional Lithium greases because of their higher dropping points and improved heat resistance.
They also work well in low temperatures.

A basic recipe for grease is below:

Thickener   10 – 15 %
Base Oil   80 – 90%
Performance Additives   5 – 10%
A tremendous amount of formulation science is put into achieving all the performance properties of a premium grease.
Because greases are formulated for their intended applications, and the properties of the grease are very important, several laboratory tests are used to assess grease properties.

Sebacic acid, also known as SBA, is a castor oil derivative which finds many industrial uses.
It is used as a corrosion inhibitor in lubricants and metalworking fluids by forming a thin coating on the metal which restricts access by corrosive ions.
Sebacic acid is used in the production of Nylon 6-10 and is a common carboxylic acid used in the manufacture of plasticizers.
It also finds uses in hydraulic fluids, cosmetics and candles.
Lithium hydroxystearate complex greases use dicarboxylic acids, such as sebacic acid, for unusual performance parameters.
Producers of SBA include China, the world’s largest, India and the United States.

This invention relates to a metal corrosion inhibitor for use in aqueous solutions, and to antifreeze/coolant compositions containing such a corrosion inhibitor.
More particularly, this invention relates to a corrosion inhibitor comprising a combination of monobasic acids or the alkali metal, ammonium, or amine salts of said acids and a hydrocarbyl triazole together with imidazole, and to antifreeze/coolant compositions containing the same.

[0002] Automobile engine cooling systems contain a variety of metals, including copper, solder, brass, steel, cast iron, aluminum, magnesium, and their alloys.
The possibility of corrosive attack on such metals is high, due to the presence of various ions as well as the high temperatures, pressures, and flow rates found in such cooling systems.
The presence of corrosion products within the cooling system can interfere with heat transfer from the engine combustion chambers, which may subsequently cause engine overheating and engine component failure due to excess metal temperatures.
See generally Fay, R. H., “Antifreezes and Deicing Fluids,” in Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology (1978 ed.), vol. 3, pp. 79 – 95.
It would therefore be generally advantageous if the formation of corrosion products within automobile cooling systems could be controlled or eliminated.
It is one object of the instant invention to provide a corrosion inhibitor useful in the prevention and control of corrosion in automobile engine cooling systems containing various metals.

[0003] The trend towards improved fuel economy for automobiles has led to the increased use of aluminum and in some cases magnesium for engine and cooling system components.
However, it has been found that pitting and crevice corrosion are particularly prevalent in aluminum-containing cooling systems.
Many conventional corrosion inhibitor additives used in automobile cooling systems do not provide adequate protection against the pitting and crevice corrosion phenomena found with various aluminum and magnesium alloys.
It would therefore be particularly advantageous if the pitting and crevice corrosion phenomena found in automobile cooling systems containing aluminum or magnesium alloys could be controlled or eliminated.
It is another object of the instant invention to provide a corrosion inhibitor for use in automobile cooling systems which prevents or controls pitting and crevice corrosion of aluminum and magnesium metal surfaces.

[0004] Corrosion inhibitors employed in automobile antifreeze/coolant formulations are gradually depleted by use and the build-up of corrosion products in the cooling system.
It would thus be advantageous if the build-up of corrosion products within the system and subsequent corrosion inhibitor depletion or degradation could be controlled or eliminated.
It is a further object of the instant invention to provide a corrosion inhibitor which is less prone to depletion or degradation than traditional corrosion inhibitors used in antifreeze/coolant formulations.

[0005] It is well known that various monobasic acids as well as the salts of such acids are individually effective as corrosion inhibitors when employed in antifreeze/coolant formulations.
For example, the use of sodium salts of various monobasic acids as mild steel corrosion inhibitors in aqueous solutions is disclosed in Hersch, P., et al., “An Experimental Survey Of Rust Preventives In Water – II. The Screening Of Organic Inhibitors,” Journal of Applied Chemistry, vol. 11 (July, 1961), pp. 254-55.
The use of a mixture of sodium sebacate (the sodium salt of sebacic acid) and benzotriazole as a useful corrosion inhibitor in engine coolants is disclosed in G. Butler & A.D. Mercer, “Inhibitor Formulations for Engine Coolants,” British Corrosion Journal, vol. 12., no. 3 (1977), pp. 171-74.

US-A-3,573,225 discloses a corrosion inhibitor containing 50-100 parts of a salt of a C₆-C₁₈ saturated carboxylic acid, 20-200 parts of an alkali metal benzoate, and 1-50 parts of an alkanolamide selected from the reaction products of ethanolamines and a saturated C₆-C₁₈ fatty acid;
GB-A-2,122,598 discloses a metal corrosion inhibitor which comprises at least one C₆-C₁₀ aliphatic carboxylic acid, at least one C₆-C₈ polyhydroxycarboxylic acid, and at least one aromatic monocarboxylic acid, in which each of the acids is present as a salt;

[0016] The above-described corrosion inhibitor mixture will most typically be employed in antifreeze formulations as coolants for internal combustion engines.
Other applications may include hydraulic fluids, aqueous cutting oils, paints, soluble oils, metal cutting fluids, aircraft deicers, and greases.
In these applications, the monobasic acid salts may be formed with metal hydroxides including sodium, potassium, lithium, barium, calcium, and magnesium.

[0017] The antifreeze formulations most commonly used include mixtures of water and water soluble liquid alcohol freezing point depressants such as glycol and glycol ethers.

Reserve alkalinity, reserve acidity and pH are easily controlled by either modifying the amount of neutralisation of the acids and/or the imidazole content.
The addition of imidazole assists in the pH control.
Alkali metal hydroxides may be added to adjust the pH of the composition to the desired level.
The formulations according to the present invention are simple to blend to a near neutral pH range, as is required in engine antifreeze systems.

[0020] Dibasic acids may be included in order to further improve corrosion protection, i.e. from 0.1 to 15 weight percent, calculated as the free acid of a C₅-C₁₆ hydrocarbyl dibasic acid or the salt thereof.

[0022] The method of this invention will be further illustrated by the following examples.
In the following examples, all percents are weight percents unless otherwise specified.

Production of Sebacic Acid Using Two-Phase Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis
Fang Zhang, Chuanhui Huang, and Tongwen Xu*
Abstract
To produce a water-insoluble acid—sebacic acid—in an environmentally friendly manner, two-phase bipolar membrane electrodialysis (TPBMED) was proposed to convert sodium sebacate into sebacic acid in ethanol−water mixtures.
The results indicated that BP-C configuration (BP, bipolar membrane; C, cation-exchange membrane) was better than the other configurations: BP-A (A, anion-exchange membrane), BP-A-C, and BP-A-A.
In a TPBMED stack of BP-C configuration, the sodium sebacate could be totally transformed to sebacic acid with a current efficiency of 94% and energy consumption of 2.2 kW h kg−1.
The process cost was estimated to be $0.57 kg−1.
Nonetheless, to simultaneously dissolve sebacic sodium and sebacic acid, the ethanol content in the mixture was controlled at 60 v/v %, and the maximal concentration of sebacic acid produced was only 0.13 mol dm−3 due to the limit on solubility.

Abstract— The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of long-chain and branch alcohol on lubricity of sebacic acid based ester.
Since currently synthesis of a new lubricant to improve the lubricity properties and quality of lubricant is increasing, in this study,sebacic acid esters were synthesized by the conventional esterification method with some modification using sulfuric acid (SA) as catalyst.
Twelve samples of sebacic acid esters with different chemical structures were synthesized including di-2-octyl sebacate, didecyl sebacate, di-2 ethylhexanol sebacate, di-2-ethylbutyl sebacate and dioleyl sebacate.
These diesters were tested in terms of their suitability as lubricant.
The results showed that the pour point, flash point and oxidation stability were affected by liner and branch of the alcohol used.
Di-2-ethylbutyl sebacate (D2EBS) and di-2-ethylhexanol sebacate (D2EHS) showed very low pour point at -44°C and -60°C respectively, while the same carbon number of dihexyl sebacate (DHS) and dioctyl sebacate (DOS) recorded high pour point at 8°C and 15 °C respectively.
These differences were due to the presence of the branching.
DOS recorded the highest oxidative stability at 290°C.
However, there was a slight negative effect of the branching on the flash point.

Sebacic acid is a chemical compound which is primarily derived from castor oil with two primary uses as a reactant with other chemicals to produce distinct chemical compounds or polymers or directly in formulated products such as a corrosion inhibitor in cutting and metal working fluids.
Sebacic acid can be used directly in formulated products such as antifreeze coolants.

As a fatty chemical, it coats exposed metals with a thin film that helps protect against oxygen and electrolytic corrosion.
The sebacate esters are frequently used as liquid proxies for the corresponding acid in making greases.
Sebacate esters compete with the chemical derivatives of adipic acid, azelaic acid, and dodecanedioic acid as plasticizers.
Derivatives of sebacic acid can be used in the production of corrosion inhibitors.

Chemical Reaction And Yield %
The esterification reaction of sebacic acid and alcohol (1:2) mole ratio was done out according to routine method, through 4 h at the range of 100-130°C with some modification using nitrogen.
H2SO4 was used as a catalyst.
Figure 1 shows the reaction procedure of sebacic acid and 2- ethyl-1-hexanol.
The formed water through reaction was removed by dean stark method using toluene as a zoetrope.
After 4 h the reaction stopped and left for 2- 3 h to stable and cool, it was dissolved in 50ml of diethyl ether and put in
separating funnel, and then the mixture was washing using saturated NaHCO3 (10ml X 3) followed by 10 ml of saturated NaCl until the pH of organic layer was 7.
