Recent Industry trends in Stearic Acid Market, 2015-2025 by FMI
Stearic acid is also called octadecanoic acid, which is basically one of the most common long-chain fatty acids. Stearic acid has extensive applications in many fields, for instance, cosmetic industry, rubber industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and biomedical science industry. Although, stearic is generally derived from palm oil, it is also derived from others sources such as corn, which is a waxy solid that is almost insoluble in water. Since, stearic acid occurs in many animal and vegetable fats and oils. However, animal fat is richer than vegetable fat by 15%. One of the most popular uses of stearic acid is in the production of candles to harden the wax and strengthen the candle. Stearic acid is also commonly used in the production of soap. It give shampoos a pearly color and also helps to make harden soaps. Furthermore, preventing oxidization is another key use of stearic acid. It is also used to coat metal powders such as iron and aluminum, used in fireworks that allow them to be stored for longer period of time. It is also used in some metal polishes to prevent the oxidation, to produce magnesium stearate and rust that can occur on metal parts of tools.

<strong>Stearic</strong> <strong>Acid</strong> <strong>Market</strong> Dynamics:<br />
The steady growth <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>dustries such as construction, automotive, cleaners and<br />
personal care it is expected to drive the demand for stearic acid <strong>in</strong> the production<br />
worldwide. Personal care segment is the major growth driver s<strong>in</strong>e it is the fastest grow<strong>in</strong>g<br />
segment where stearic acid plays an important role. Moreover, the overall fatty acid<br />
market is grow<strong>in</strong>g which is another grow<strong>in</strong>g factor for stearic acid market. The only<br />
restra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g factor for stearic acid is hav<strong>in</strong>g low water solubility, which can result <strong>in</strong> a<br />
residual film on bathtubs and sk<strong>in</strong>. Hence, it is usually used as additives rather than as a<br />
primary <strong>in</strong>gredients. However, the dynamic use of stearic acid has a very good growth<br />
prospect. Metal clean<strong>in</strong>g and candle manufactur<strong>in</strong>g are also expected to grow <strong>in</strong> the near<br />
future. Moreover geographically, Ch<strong>in</strong>a, India and ASEAN countries hold good<br />
opportunity.
