description Product Description
Oleic acid is widely used in the manufacturing of soaps, detergents, and cosmetics due to its emollient properties, which help soften and moisturize the skin. In the food industry, it serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer, enhancing the texture and shelf life of various products. It is also utilized in the production of lubricants and metalworking fluids, where its properties help reduce friction and improve performance. Additionally, oleic acid is a key component in the synthesis of oleochemicals, which are used in biodegradable plastics, paints, and coatings. Its role in pharmaceuticals includes being a carrier for drug delivery systems and an ingredient in formulations for topical applications.
