Fatty acids which are derived naturally are saturated or unsaturated carboxylic acid that consists of long aliphatic chain and has even number of carbon atoms i.e. from 4 to 28 in the chain. Globally, increasing health awareness and medicinal benefits, rise in the demand from personal and home care products, and growing demand from the detergent and soap industry are the prime growth drivers of fatty acid market. In addition, increase in adoption of fatty acid for newer applications, and emerging economies such as China, India and others will create new opportunities for fatty acid market. However, higher cost of the research and development, and biological effects due to deficiency of fatty acids are the key restraints for fatty acid market.
