Oleic acid is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid (18:1 cis-9) found naturally in many animal and vegetable fats and oils. It has a wide range of uses across industries, medicine, cosmetics, and food. Here’s a breakdown:
1. Industrial Uses
• Surfactants and detergents: Used to produce soaps and detergents due to its emulsifying and cleansing properties.
• Lubricants: Acts as a biodegradable and non-toxic lubricant in industrial applications.
• Plasticizers: Used in the manufacture of flexible plastics (e.g., PVC) to improve flexibility and durability.
• Paints and coatings: Acts as a drying agent in some oil-based paints and varnishes.
2. Pharmaceutical and Medical Uses
• Drug delivery: Used in formulations to enhance absorption of certain drugs (as an excipient).
• Emollient in topical formulations:
