MYRISTIC ACID 98%
Common applications for fatty acids include rubber processing, candles and cosmetic products or use as feedstock to produce derivatives such as MCTs, soap, and metallic soap. Intermediate chemicals such as fatty alcohols, fatty amines and fatty esters can also be manufactured from fatty acids.
