Market Overview:
The global fatty alcohol market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for fatty alcohols in various applications such as personal care, plasticizers, lubricants, and others. In terms of type, long chain fatty alcohols are expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. However, short chain fatty alcohols are projected to grow at a higher CAGR owing to their growing demand from end-use industries such as personal care and pharmaceuticals.
Product Definition:
A fatty alcohol is an organic compound that contains a long hydrocarbon chain and a hydroxyl group. Fatty alcohols are generally colorless, odorless, and tasteless liquids at room temperature. They are used as solvents, surfactants, emulsifiers, and lubricants.
Long Chain:
Long-chain alcohols are fatty alcohols with chains length of C10 to C22. They have wide applications in personal care, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and nutraceutical owing to their excellent solvency properties and low toxicity levels. Growing demand for natural ingredients in the cosmetic & personal care industry is expected to be a key factor driving the global long chain fatty alcohol market over the forecast period.
Short Chain:
Short chain fatty alcohols are a group of chemicals derived from fats and oils. They are generally produced by the chemical reaction between vegetable oils and methanol or bio-based ethanol. The most commonly used raw materials for short chain fatty alcohol production include palm kernel oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, tallow beef tallow ethylene (TBE) and glycerol.
Application Insights:
The personal care segment is projected to emerge as the fastest-growing application segment, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030. Fatty alcohols are used in various personal care products such as creams, lotions and bath oils on account of their skin conditioning properties. Furthermore, they are also used in shampoos and conditioners due to their hair conditioning properties which makes them suitable for use in both men and women¢â‚¬â„¢s hair.
Increasing demand for cosmetic products with enhanced features is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period owing to its ability to provide viscosity benefits along with excellent emulsion stability at low temperatures without any modification in formulation or processing methods currently followed by manufacturers globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the leading regional market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for a major share of global consumption, production as well as import and export. China is one of the largest producers globally along with being a key consumer in this region owing to large scale production coupled with high demand from end-use industries such as paints & coatings, plastics, personal care products and lubricants.
