Author(s): Ioana Stanciu
Abstract:
In this article, we determined the composition of castor oil using FTIR spectroscopy and the ShemadzuIRPrestige-21 spectroscope as the instrument. Castor oil contains absorption bands between the wave numbers 3384 and 458cm-1. The functional groups contained in castor oil are: O-H, C-H, C=O, C-O.
