Abstract

Polyols are intermediate compounds used as raw materials to produce highly valuable industrial materials. Generally, the raw materials for synthesizing polyols are petroleum-based, non-biodegradable fossil fuels. In this study, the raw material used is oil from Ricinus communis L. (Local name: jarak kepyar), a renewable raw material. The fatty acid content of Jarak Kepyar oil is dominated by 90% of ricinoleic acid, which could be converted into polyols. The polyols are synthesized through epoxidation and hydroxylation reactions. The products were characterized using FTIR, the ratio of the oil and the polyol's hydroxyl number, the ratio of the oil and the polyol, and the ratio of the iodine value of the oil and the polyol. The percentage of conversion of castor oil to polyol, which was determined based on the ratio of the iodine value of the oil and the product, was 91.43%.
