Global Isostearic Acid Market (2018-2022) to Grow at a CAGR of 7.8%, Driven by the Increased Demand for Bio-Lubricants – ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Global
Isostearic Acid Market 2018-2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's
offering.

The global isostearic acid market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 7.8%
during the period 2018-2022.

The report has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with
inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and
its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a
discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

One trend affecting this market is the increased consumption of
cosmetics and daily-use products. Isostearic acid is mainly used in
products that are used for daily purpose such as lipsticks, eye makeup,
foundations, shaving creams. In addition, isostearic acid is used to
manufacture bike tires. A small portion of isostearic acid is used in
the texture and smell of crayons that are used for coloring.

According to the report, one driver influencing this market is the
increased demand for bio-lubricants. Bio-based lubricants have emerged
as an alternative to petroleum-based lubricants. Bio-based lubricants
are produced from renewable feedstocks, such as plant-based oil and
sugar. They are produced through fermentation, ultrafiltration, and
crystallization techniques.

Further, the report states that one challenge affecting this market is
the threat of substitutes. Isostearic acid can be replaced with
compounds such as lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic
acid, oleic acid, behenic acid, and coconut fatty acid. These
alternatives are most cost-effective when compared to isostearic acid,
therefore, they are preferred for manufacturing different products.
