Expert Market Research Explores the Top 5 Companies in the Global Undecylenic Acid Market

Arkema Group, HOKOKU Co. Ltd, Acme Synthetic Chemicals, Jayant Agro-Organics Limited, and TCI Chemicals (India) Pvt. Ltd, among others, are the major players in the global undecylenic acid market.

The global undecylenic acid market is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 4% in the forecast period of 2022-2027. As per the analysis by Expert Market Research, the market is expected to be driven by the expanding application scope of undecylenic acid in the pharmaceutical industry and rising consumer awareness of renewable source ingredients.

Undecylenic acid and its calcium/zinc salt are active ingredients in anti-fungal medicines to treat fungal illnesses, including ringworm and athlete's foot, due to their anti-fungal qualities. During the forecast period, FDA approval of medical applications is projected to favour the undecylenic acid industry's growth. Undecylenic acid is also used to treat candida infection, itching, and skin inflammation. The increasing availability of castor oil derived from vegetable sources is likely to be a significant market driver throughout the forecast period.

Fragrance ingredients account for a significant portion of the undecylenic acid market. In perfumes, undecylenic acid and its derivatives are commonly used. As a result, the undecylenic acid market will likely benefit from rising perfume demand over the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific is expected to grow significantly throughout the forecast period due to an adequate availability of vegetable-derived castor oil. When castor oil is processed, it yields ricinoleic acid, which is then subjected to a series of chemical reactions to produce undecylenic acid. As a result, the quantity of castor oil in the region, particularly in growing countries like India, which dominate castor oil production, will assure the growth of the undecylenic acid market, thereby having a positive impact on the market's overall development.
