Coconut fatty acid

Coconut fatty acid (CAS 61788-47-4 ), also sold as coco fatty acids or coconut oil acids, is a mixed-chain fatty acid blend derived from coconut oil. It functions as a building block for surfactants and emulsifiers. This versatile material is used for lubricants across personal care, cleaning, and industrial manufacturing. In personal care, it is saponified to produce coconut soap bases and used to formulate cleansing bars. It is also found in shampoos and skin creams where controlled lather and emulsification are required. Home care and industrial cleaning manufacturers use it as a feedstock for amine-based and ethoxylated surfactants. These surfactants are essential in detergents, degreasers, and hard-surface cleaners. Textile and leather processors apply it as a lubricant and softening agent during fiber treatment and leather fatliquoring. In food-grade applications, refined grades serve as emulsifier precursors and release agents in bakery and confectionery processing. It is supplied as a pale yellow to off-white liquid or solid. Packaging options include bulk, IBC, and drum formats depending on temperature and volume needs. Technical and industrial grades are standard for cleaning and textile applications for various industries. Food-grade and USP / FCC -compliant grades are available for food and personal care use. Typical specifications reference acid value, iodine value, and saponification value for quality control. These metrics confirm fatty acid profile consistency across different batches. This ensures that the material meets the rigorous demands of high-performance manufacturing and chemical formulation. Contact us for supply of Coconut fatty acid Request Quote
