Coconut Fatty Acids (CAS NO : 61788-47-4)

Coconut Acid (CAS 61788-47-4) serves as a critical feedstock for North American surfactants and detergents, where the shift toward sulfate-free formulations has positioned it as a high purity fine chemicals essential for secondary surfactant synthesis. Distilled Coconut Fatty Acids are increasingly utilized by U.S.-based CDMOs for custom synthesis services to develop bio-based emollients and esters, meeting the 98% purity (personal care industry) standard required for premium dermatological applications. Fractionated Coconut Alkanes are gaining significant traction among bulk chemical suppliers as the industry pivots toward green chemistry and renewable oleochemicals to satisfy stringent VOC regulations and consumer demand for sustainable, plant-derived alternatives to petroleum-based lubricants and coatings. As an established personal care and cosmetic industry suppliers in the united states, we ensure dependable supply, consistent quality, and complete regulatory documentation, including CoA and TDS across all grades. Beyond supply, we support partners through the entire product lifecycle from route scouting, process and formulation development, and analytical method development to scale-up, process optimisation, and pilot-to-commercial manufacturing. Our teams also assist with GMP-compliant quality assurance, regulatory documentation, and global supply chain and logistics coordination.
