Turkey red oil

Japanese: ロート油 - ろーとゆ(英語表記)Turkey red oil
Turkey red oil

A chemical used in the mid-19th century to prevent mottled dyeing with Turkish red (alizarin), a natural red dye, and to obtain a uniform dyeing. It is also called Turkish red oil, but since olive oil treated with sulfuric acid was used at first, it is also called sulfated oil. When sulfated castor oil appeared around 1875, it became mainstream. Until the appearance of several new synthetic surfactants after 1928, it was used for a long time in the textile industry as the only surfactant other than soap. Even today, it is used as a dyeing aid for acid dyes, as an emulsifier/dispersant for pesticides, and as a tanning aid for leather using plants.

19世紀の中ごろに、赤色の天然染料であったトルコ赤(アリザリン)によるまだら染めを防ぎ、均一な染色を得るために用いられた薬剤。トルコ赤油ともいうが、初めはオリーブ油を硫酸で処理したものが用いられたので硫酸化油sulfonated oilともいう。1875年ころに、ひまし油の硫酸化油が現れてから主流はそれにかわった。1928年以降に新しいいくつかの合成界面活性剤が登場するまでは、せっけんを除いて唯一の界面活性剤として、長い間繊維工業で用いられてきた。現在でも酸性染料の染色助剤としてのほか、農薬の乳化剤・分散剤あるいは植物を用いた皮革のなめし助剤に用いられている。
