I. Basic Characteristics

1. Chemical Nature and Properties
   • A natural plant-based drying oil derived from high-temperature refining of tung tree fruits, primarily categorized into raw tung oil and boiled tung oil:
     • Boiled Tung Oil: Raw tung oil treated with heat (sometimes modified with rosin, varnish, etc.), appearing as a dark brown viscous liquid with a slightly pungent odor.
     • Raw Tung Oil: Pale yellow in color, thin in texture, with a mild odor and superior environmental friendliness.
   • Physical Performance:
     • Fast drying, high gloss, strong adhesion, resistant to acid, alkali, water, and high temperatures;
     • Good low-temperature fluidity (industrial-grade boiled tung oil is suitable for outdoor environments).

1. Processing Technology
   • Traditional boiling process enhances polymerization, forming a dense waterproof film.

II. Core Application Areas

1. Wood Protection and Building Materials

• Anti-Corrosion and Anti-Pest:
  • Penetrates deep into wood to form a protective film against water, moisture, and insect damage, extending the lifespan of outdoor wooden structures (e.g., ancient buildings, log cabins, fences);
  • Compared to varnish: more environmentally friendly and odorless, with deeper protection than surface coating.
• Functional Extensions:
  • Used as concrete dispersants and asphalt emulsifiers to improve the adhesion of building materials and construction fluidity.

2. Waterproofing and Protective Coatings

• Oil Paper Umbrellas/Oilcloth:
  • Umbrella paper coated with boiled tung oil becomes waterproof, fold-resistant, and sun-resistant, maintaining a smooth and glossy surface;
• Metal and Machinery:

  • Replaces traditional phosphating processes for waterproofing, anti-corrosion, and anti-rust coatings on vehicles, ships, machinery, and electrical appliances;

  • Acts as an emulsifier in electroplating processes to optimize coating uniformity.

3. Chemical and Daily Chemicals

• Paints and Inks: Serves as a primary raw material to enhance coating weather resistance;
• Pharmaceutical Applications:
  • Raw tung oil is used in medicine (e.g., as an emetic);
  • Derivatives of boiled tung oil can serve as ointment carriers to promote skin absorption.

III. Product Advantages and Precautions

• Environmental Friendliness: Plant-based formula free of heavy metals, suitable for indoor and outdoor eco-friendly coatings;
• Operational Limitations:
  • High-temperature environments (>40°C) may affect curing effectiveness; ventilation is required during application;
  • Industrial-grade products contain chemical additives; prolonged exposure requires protective equipment.
• Packaging and Storage: Store in sealed, light-proof containers to prevent oxidation and deterioration.
