Undecylenic Acid (UDA) Production Cost Breakup By Vacuum Pyrolysis Method

Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024  | From $ USD

This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of undecylenic acid or UDA production by vacuum pyrolysis method. The preparation process is initiated by obtaining ricinoleic acid from castor oil. Initially, castor oil undergoes hydrolysis, which leads to the formation of ricinoleic acid. It is then heated at a temperature in the absence of oxygen. The process results in the breakdown of ricinoleic acid and the production of undecylenic acid, or UDA, as the final product.

Top Producers of Undecylenic Acid (UDA)

  • White Deer Flavor
  • Castor International
  • Arkema

Feedstock for Undecylenic Acid (UDA)

Undecylenic acid is an organic chemical acid obtained from ricinoleic acid that serves as its major feedstock. The procurement of undecylenic acid is determined by some prominent factors, including the production cost of UDA, along with the variations in the market prices and supply chain stability, etc.

Other factors, such as the availability of its feedstocks (including castor oil for ricinoleic acid production), the demand observed for undecylenic acid in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and perfumery industries, and logistics, etc., also play a major role and influence its procurement around the world. Moreover, factors including the distribution of undecylenic acid (covering trading and transportation activities), governmental and financial policies, along with socioeconomic factors and market sentiments significantly govern its overall procurement.
