Regarding volume, the market was calculated XX Tons in 2021 and forecast to touch XX Tons by 2028 with a CAGR of XX% during 2022-2028.
Dimer fatty acids, commonly known as dimerized fatty acids, are dicarboxylic acids produced by dimerizing unsaturated fatty acids. Dimer fatty acids are non-toxic and have a dense yellow colour. Dimer fatty acids commonly produce polyamide resins and hot melt adhesives. Based on their properties, dimer acid-based polyamide resins can be classified as reactive or non-reactive. Curing agents for epoxy resins, utilized in adhesives and surface coatings, are reactive polyamides. Printing inks and hot-melt adhesives, on the other hand, are usually made from non-reactive polyamides. Dimer acid-based polyamide resins are also commonly utilized as fuel oil additives lubricants in alkyd resins, adhesives, and surfactants.
Market Dynamics
In the coming years, the rising demand for dimer fatty acid in hot melt adhesives and increased construction spending to improve local infrastructure will continue to drive sales. Increased R&D investments are fueling market growth to identify improved dimer fatty acid synthesis technologies. The demand for low-cost pure chemicals is predicted to drive standard dimer fatty acid sales. The vast range of uses for dimer acid in industries such as paints and coatings, adhesives, and oilfield chemicals, among others, is expected to drive up demand. These industries will grow in the future, adding to the growth of the worldwide dimer fatty acid market. In the dimer fatty acid industry, non-reactive polymer currently leads the application segment. Despite its positive outlook, the dimer fatty acid industry is expected to face price fluctuations in raw materials such as rapeseed oil, cottonseed oil, and soybean oil, which could stifle market growth throughout the forecast period.
