Erucic Acid: A Specialty Fatty Acid with Industrial Importance
Erucic acid is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid primarily derived from natural sources such as mustard seed oil, rapeseed oil, and other cruciferous plants. It serves as a crucial intermediate in the manufacture of lubricants, plastics, surfactants, cosmetics, and bio-based chemicals. Due to its unique chemical properties, erucic acid is highly valued in various industrial applications, particularly in producing erucamide, a slip agent used in polymer processing.
Growing demand in sectors like automotive, personal care, and bioplastics fuels steady growth in erucic acid production globally, especially in regions with strong oilseed cultivation such as North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
