Oil of Linseed – 500ml Packs

Oil of Linseed is an unrefined plant oil supplied for general laboratory experiments and chemistry education. Rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, it offers teachers an authentic substance for demonstrating oxidation, polymerization, and the unique properties of drying oils.

In college laboratory practicals and secondary school chemistry classes, this oil is commonly employed in experiments demonstrating iodine value determinations, unsaturation tests, and the formation of cross-linked resinous films. It is also utilized in physical science experiments examining laminar flow, fluid friction, and thermal conductivity.

As a staple laboratory chemical for educational institutions, it provides students with direct exposure to natural product modification. It serves as an informative instructional aid across both general chemistry and materials science teaching modules.

Bottles should be kept tightly capped in a cool chemical store. Rags soaked in linseed oil must be disposed of safely in metal containers to prevent hazards in laboratory prep rooms.
