Sebacic Acid Production Cost Analysis

Report Overview:

Sebacic acid (CH)(COH) is an organic, omega-dicarboxylic acid that is derived from castor oil using sulphuric acid and catalysts, such as zinc oxide, phenol, and sodium hydroxide. In its pure state, the compound is in the form of a white flake or powdered crystal. The byproducts of sebacic acid include octanol, glycerol, azelaic acid, and polymer residue. It is non-hazardous and is largely used in the manufacturing of lubricants, hydraulic fluids, plasticizers, cosmetics, and candles. Additionally, sebacic acid is used as an intermediate for aromatics, antiseptics, and painting materials. It is slightly soluble in water and is extensively used as an alternative energy substrate in parenteral nutrition. Sebacic acid offers various advantages, such as excellent lubricity, higher thermal stability, low-temperature fluidity, and high flash point. As a result, it is witnessing massive demand across the pharmaceutical, automotive, and cosmetics industries.

The primary factor driving the global sebacic acid market growth is the rising demand for polymers and plastics across various industrial verticals. For instance, in the automotive sector, sebacic acid is used to manufacture a salt derivative that is used as a coolant for automotive and truck engines, which is acting as a growth-inducing factor. Moreover, it is used to manufacture plastic as it provides lower melting temperature and better flexibility, which is bolstering the market growth. Additionally, governments of various nations are undertaking several initiatives to promote the use of bio-based products to minimize negative environmental impact, which is creating a positive outlook for the market growth. In line with this, the inflating consumer per capita income has significantly surged the expenditure on cosmetics, which is also driving the global market growth. Apart from this, sebacic acid is witnessing massive demand as a chemical intermediate in the production of esters, which are used as film-forming agents, masking agents, solvents, emollients, and conditioning agents, thus favoring the market growth. Other factors, such as the low manufacturing cost of the product, surging demand for premium quality cosmetic products, and the rapidly expanding chemical industry, are providing an impetus to the market growth.
