- Castor oil - 200 ml;
- Acid oleic - 150 ml;
- Sodium hydroxide (in granules) - 13, 3 g;
- Distilled water - 133 ml;
- Turpentine gum - 500 ml.
Pour the castor oil into the enamelware and place in a water bath. While the water boils, you need to prepare a solution of caustic soda. Caustic soda - alkali, requires careful handling. Prepare the solution only with rubber gloves and be careful! Take a thin-walled flask, pour distilled water into it and, turning the flask, pour alkali into it. Stir until the sodium hydroxide dissolves completely. Be careful, as there is a danger that the bulb will burst from overheating. Leave the flask and allow the solution to cool. When the water in the steam bath boils, reduce the heat and after 5 minutes add the prepared alkali solution to the bowl with castor oil and begin to mix thoroughly. When the mixture becomes thick, add oleic acid. Continue to knead with a glass rod until the mixture becomes liquid. Stop heating and remove the dishes from the steam bath. Now you can add turpentine. Stir the mixture thoroughly. In the finished form, the yellow turpentine solution is transparent, has a yellow color and is similar to vegetable oil. For storage, pour the solution into a bottle of dark glass, close tightly and store at room temperature. Shelf life - 1 year.
