Our fatty alcohols are also available under RSPO Mass Balance

 

 

 

Fatty alcohols are mainly used in the production of detergents and surfactants. They are also used in the manufacture of solvents and plasticizers,  in lubricants, cosmetics, inks, adhesives and food,........ 

 

 

 

 

 

Fatty Alcohols can be produced from natural origin ( oils and fats route) or via the synthetic route

The Oils and Fats Route can use different processes, such as  Hydrogenation of Fatty Acids, Hydrogenation of Wax Esters , Hydrogenation of Methyl Esters or Fatty Acids Esterification.

The Synthetic Route is using mainly Olefins/Ethylene as feedstock . 

 

 

 

Fatty Alcohols are used as intermediate to produce for example surfactants , but also as direct use for

Detergents, Surface Cleaners, .........

  • As nonionic surfactant, wetting agent, dispersing agent & emulsifier.
