Fatty acid esters are ester produce via the reaction between alcohol and fatty acid. They are widely used across a wide range of applications due to their lubricating, resistance to oxidation, and solvency properties. Fatty acid esters are derived from vegetable oils and animal tallow. Rapidly growing demand of the derivatives of fatty acid esters in numerous end-use industries is anticipated to strengthen its current demand during the estimated period. On account of their natural properties concerning emulsion stabilization is expected to be among the most essential components of the food & beverage and personal care industries. Due to their superior properties of emulsification, the derivatives of fatty acid esters especially the monoglycerides have witnessed varying applications as parts of liposomal and nano- formulations in the pharmaceutical industry for drug delivery systems. The high cost of the fatty acid esters coupled with the high cost of procuring raw materials is expected to hamper the growth of this market in the near future.
