Product Description

Fatty alcohols are a group of organic compounds derived from natural fats and oils. They are characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain with a terminal hydroxyl group (-OH), which differentiates them from regular alcohols like ethanol or methanol. Fatty alcohols are commonly found in various plant and animal sources and are widely used in a range of industrial applications due to their unique properties. On the other hand, these alcohols can be produced through the process of hydrogenation of fatty acids, which involves the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated fatty acids found in natural oils and fats.

Apart from this, fatty alcohols are versatile compounds with diverse applications. They serve as key ingredients in skincare, hair care, and cosmetics products such as moisturizers, lotions, shampoos, and conditioners. They also find applications in pharmaceutical formulations as excipients, solubilizers, and emulsifying agents. Besides, fatty alcohols are utilized in the formulation of agrochemicals such as herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides.
