Tallow Fatty Acids Market

Tallow Fatty Acids Market Overview:

Natural fatty acids are basic oleochemicals that are saturated or unsaturated in nature. The unsaturated fats that are usually produced have an even number of carbon tails and are obtained mainly from triglycerides or phospholipids. These acids are widely used in various end-use industries, such as food, lubricants, plastics, rubber, soaps, personal care, and surfactants. The development of these businesses is added to the financial growth of a particular region. Natural fatty acids are transformed into soaps, amides, amines, and esters by the response with carboxyl groups. Furthermore, the hydrogenation of methyl esters with fatty acids opens the way for fatty alcohols. These are used in conjunction with the brand of surfactants. The demand for personal care items is increasing, especially in countries like Brazil and India, as well as in Southeast Asia. The evolution of per capita income and the inclination towards the western lifestyle are the key variables responsible for the growing demand for personal care items. Manufacturers of personal care and cosmetic products use tallow-based stearic acids, such as bases, facial powders, and eyeliners. In this way, the demand for tallow fatty acids in these applications will probably increase in the next two years. 

Tallow Fatty Acids Market Demand Factors:

Growing demand for soaps and detergents worldwide is expected to be a key driving factor for market growth. Fatty acids such as stearic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid are widely used in the manufacturing of soaps and detergents, thus increasing the business for soaps and detergents which in turn will boost the growth of the overall industry. Furthermore, growing prevalence and stringent policy regarding cleanliness and hygiene in the food and beverage and manufacturing industries will further aid the market growth. The positive growth of the rubber and plastics industry has led to the overall growth of the market. The product is extensively used in the rubber and plastics industry due to its ability to offer stabilizing, lubricating, gelling, and anti-caking characteristics. For instance, stearic acid is used across the rubber processing industry as an anti-tacking and vulcanization agents and in plastics, it is used as additives.  The rubber and plastic demand from various end-user industries such as building and construction, automotive, packaging, and electronics will drive the global tallow oil fatty acids market size in the near future.

Tallow Fatty Acids Market  Drivers and Restraints:

The growing demand for soaps and detergents worldwide will be the main factor driving the size of the global tallow fatty acids market during the forecast period. The products like stearic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid are primarily used in the manufacture of soaps and detergents, so the increasing activity of soaps and detergents will subsequently increase the overall size of the industry by 2024. For example, the product is widely used in soaps to provide creamy lather with superior conditioning properties. Additionally, global cleaning market revenue is supposed to exceed $ 100 billion by 2024.Furthermore, the prevalence of clean and sanitary regulations in the food and manufacturing industry will increase in all the world of the global tallow fatty acids market by 2024. The recent development in the rubber and plastics industry will improve the world market share of tallow fatty acids in the coming years. This product is widely used in the rubber and plastic industry due to its ability to offer stabilizing, lubricating, gelling and anti-caking characteristics. For example, in rubber processing, stearic acid is used as release agents and vulcanizers, and in plastics, it is used as an additive.

Thus, the growing demand for rubber and plastic from various end-user industries, such as packaging, construction and construction, automotive and electronics, will drive the size of the global tallow fatty acid market in the near future.The trend in the manufacturing industry for soaps and detergents from vegetable oils in the product may hamper the size of the global tallow fatty acid market during the forecast period. For example, the product faces a severe threat of substitution by palm oil. Furthermore, palm oil production is relatively low and is therefore preferred in the business. However, increasing product applications in sectors such as food and beverages, pharmaceuticals and personal care will create new growth pathways for the global tallow fatty acids market by the end of 2024. For example, the product is classified GRAS (generally recognized as safe) by the FDA for use in food products such as candy.

Tallow Fatty Acids Market Segmentation :

Based on Product:

  • Saturated

  • Myristic Acid

  • Stearic Acid

  • Palmitic Acid

  • Personal Care Products

Saturated tallow fatty acids have long chains of a carboxylic acid with 12 to 24 carbon atoms, which are saturated with hydrogen and is primarily used in the manufacturing of soaps and detergents, rubber and plastics, oilfield chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Thus, the strong demand for these products will subsequently boost business growth.Monounsaturated tallow fatty acids market accounts for the largest share in this market segment due to its extensive use in manufacturing soaps and cosmetics. Increasing consumer focus towards personal wellbeing has led to the rapid growth of the cosmetic industry, which in turn will aid the market.

The product owing to its high conditioning and moisturizing properties is mainly used in manufacturing soaps. Rapid growth in the cleaning and detergents industry due to the improving consumer lifestyle dynamics is further expected to boost market growth.The product primarily used as stabilizing agents and is effective lubricants that reduce adhesion between vulcanized rubber layers. It also helps in reducing the rubber-metal adhesion, which is an essential requirement in the manufacturing of tires. An increase in automobile manufacturing and sales will increase the product demand for tire manufacturing, which will subsequently drive the global tallow fatty acids market.
