Soya Fatty Acid
Soya Fatty Acid is a mixture of fatty acids primarily derived from soybean oil, consisting mostly of linoleic, oleic, palmitic, and stearic acids. It typically appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid or semi-solid at room temperature, with a mild characteristic odor. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents like alcohols and hydrocarbons. In industry, soya fatty acid is widely used as a raw material for producing soaps, detergents, surfactants, lubricants, plasticizers, emulsifiers, and biodiesel. It also serves as a feedstock in the manufacture of fatty amines, esters, and other chemical intermediates for cosmetics, coatings, and rubber industries.
