FATTY AMIDES MARKET OVERVIEW

The global Fatty Amides Market is poised for significant growth, starting at approximately USD 0.35 billion in 2024, climbing to USD 0.363 billion in 2025, and projected to reach USD 0.5 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of about 3.8%.

Fatty amides are commonly known as fatty acids and derivatives of fatty acids such as oleic acid, stearic acid and erucic acid. Film processing companies are using primary acids as slip agents or anti block agents such as oleamide, behenamide and others. Erucic acid reacts with gaseous ammonia to get erucamide acid. Fatty acids are widely applicable in packaging industries such as paper, rubber, ink and textile industry. Primary acids also function as ligand or signaling molecules which control physiology of functions by binding with specific receptor. The metabolic activities like sleep control, locomotor activities and communication between different cells is maintained by these signaling molecules. These tiny molecule travel to mammalian nervous system and control the physiology of mammals.

As their name suggests, fatty amides have a long chain with a number of functional groups which defines their acidic nature. Due to which they are used in lubrication process and adds fluidity in nylon and also prevents blocking during transportation or storage. Their smoothening and lubricating characteristics creating a demand from various industries. Despite the structural complexity, fatty amides are gaining consumers attraction especially for their conditioning in personal care products.

COVID-19 Impact

Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.
