Global Dimer Acid Market Overview


Dimer Acid Market is predicted to increase its market growth at a higher CAGR 5.76% during the forecast period of 2021-2030. The dimer acid is made with dimerizing unsaturated fatty acids that are vicious, yellow, and transparent liquid on clay catalysts. Moreover, C36H68O4 is the molecular formula of Dimer Acid. These unsaturated fatty acids are acquired from various natural sources like tallow, cottonseed, rapeseed oil, tall oil, oleic acid, and canola oil. Moreover, dimer acid is gaining more popularity because of its eco-friendly and non-toxic nature. It is also called 36 dimer acids and dimerized fatty acids. Along with that, it provides excellent properties to the polymer-like high impact strength, hydrolytic stability, excellent elasticity, flexibility, thermal stability, lower glass transition temperatures, and hydrophobicity.


Also, for synthesizing polyamide resins, dimer acid is widely used. Hence, the polyamide resins are of two types such as non-reactive polyamide and reactive polyamide. Among these two types, reactive polyamide is extensively used for epoxy resin for molded resin, marine coating, thermosetting surface coating, adhesives, potting materials & lining, heavy-duty coating, and others as a curing agent. On the other hand, the non-reactive polyamide is widely used for printing inks and producing hot melt adhesives. Along with that, the Dimer Acid is extensively used in oilfield applications as a wetting agent, corrosion & scale inhibitor, demulsifier, and surfactants. Moreover, Dimer Acid is widely used in cosmetics & personal care products like depilatory wax removal products, making safer nail polishes and hair color products. The increasing demand for surface coating, paint & inks, adhesives, and sealants is increasing the growth of the construction industry. Here, it is predicted that the increasing growth of the construction industry might increase the growth of the global Dimer Acid Market. In addition to this, the increasing demand for oilfield chemicals is predicted to boost the global market due to the increasing number of drilling activities in various regions to meet excess energy demands. Furthermore, the Global Dimer Acid Market is growing on a large scale due to the increasing cosmetics application in various regions.


The Dimer Acid Market Report has covered market segmentation, COVID-19 analysis, regional analysis, market overview, competitive analysis, and recent developments. Further, the research and development activities have also given emphasis. This report has highlighted that the global Dimer Acid Market might get hampered due to the increasing use of unsaturated fatty acids for biofuels synthesis and raw material shortage. Along with that, the global market might face challenges due to less consumer awareness. Moreover, the fluctuating price of raw materials might be another major challenge for the global market. Therefore, the global market is engaging more key players to enhance the growth of the Dimer Acid Market for the forecast period of 2023.
