Coconut oil is not soluble in denatured alcohol. While denatured alcohol can dissolve some fats and oils, coconut oil is primarily composed of saturated fats, which do not mix well with alcohol. Instead, they tend to separate, as oil and alcohol are generally immiscible. However, heating the mixture may help to emulsify the two to some extent.

Why is castor oil soluble in alcohol unlike other fixed oils?

Castor oil is soluble in alcohol due to its unique chemical composition that includes a high concentration of ricinoleic acid, which has a hydroxyl group that allows it to form hydrogen bonds with alcohol molecules. Other fixed oils do not contain this hydroxyl group, making them less soluble in alcohol.


How can you tell whether a surface is painted with oil paint?

If you're trying to determine if a surface is painted with either oil or latex paint, wipe the surface with a rag moistened with denatured alcohol. It has to be denatured. Not rubbing and not Captain Morgan. Denatured. If the paint transfers to the rag, then it's latex. If nothing transfers over, or it just cleans off the chalked paint on the surface, then it is most likely an oil based paint. If you don't have denatured alcohol, you can use Xylene; however, this could cause the oil based paint to crinkle.
