Procurement Resource Assessment of Octadecanol Production Process:
- From Hydrogenation Reaction: This report presents the detailed production methodology and cost analysis of Octadecanol industrial production across Octadecanol manufacturing plants. The preparation process starts with hydrogenating stearic acid using a metal catalyst, typically a mixed metal catalyst like palladium-tin. This catalyst facilitates the hydrogenation of stearic acid, leading to the formation of octadecanol or octadecane-1-ol as the end product. The reaction is followed by filtration and distillation to isolate the final product.

Product Definition:
Octadecanol, also known as octadecane-1-ol or stearyl alcohol, has a chemical formula of CH3(CH2)17OH, comprising eighteen carbon atoms, thirty-eight hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom, with a molecular weight of 270.5 g/mol. This long-chain fatty alcohol features a hydroxy group at its first position. It appears as a white crystalline powder with a faint odor, bland taste, and flaky nature. With a melting point of approximately 59.8°C and a boiling point of about 210°C, octadecanol is flammable, with a flash point around 195°C. It is insoluble in water but can dissolve in organic solvents like chloroform, alcohols (e.g., ethanol), and ether. It is slightly soluble in acetone and benzene, with a density of 0.81 g/cm3 at 25°C and an autoignition temperature of 450°C. When heated to high temperatures, it decomposes and emits acrid smoke. Octadecanol finds primary use as a chemical component in perfumes and resins. It is associated with the perfumery, plastic, and chemical industries, serving as a precursor and flavoring agent in the production of cosmetics, perfumes, and chemical esters. Octadecanol is also used as an additive in the food industry, where its emulsifying and antifoaming properties enhance the texture of food products. Additionally, it is utilized in the preparation of lubricants, resins, and various plastic varieties.
Market Drivers:
Octadecanol’s market demand stems from its role as a chemical additive in industries like cosmetics, resins, perfumery, and chemicals. Its use as a precursor for various fragrances in perfumes contributes significantly to its market growth. Additionally, its application as an emulsifier in food and chemical lubricants is a key factor driving demand. Octadecanol is also utilized as an emulsifier and antifoaming agent in the production of personal care and edible products such as margarine, expanding its reach in the food and cosmetics sectors. The varying demands across these downstream industries affect its procurement on a large scale, highlighting its versatility and importance in multiple markets.
