Key Drivers and Restraints of Global Behenic Acid Market

• Behenic acid is extensively employed in cosmetics. As a fatty acid, behenic acid plays an important role in providing a protective barrier against the environment in order to maintain good skin quality. In skincare, behenic acid has lubricant, emollient, and soothing properties. These help restore the skin’s natural oils and improve the overall level of hydration. Furthermore, this sebaceous fatty acid is favorably soluble against the skin’s surface, making it a desirable ingredient to infuse into skincare formulas. Thus, growth of the cosmetics industry across the globe is expected to drive the global behenic acid market during the forecast period.
• Behenic acid is also employed in detergents. It is used as an anti-foaming agent in detergents. The detergents market is expected to expand during the forecast period owing to the increase in demand for laundry cleaning products.
• Availability of substitutes is a major restraint of the global behenic acid market. Behenic acid is a cholesterol-raising saturated fatty acid in humans. Dietary behenic acid (22:0) is poorly absorbed because of its low bioavailability compared to other fatty acids. Hence, it can be substituted by monocarboxylic acid or derivatives, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid derivatives, organic oxide, etc.
