Europe Erucic Acid Price Trend
Q3 2025:
The erucic acid price index in Europe reflected an upward trend supported by a combination of structural and cost-side pressures across the region. Elevated feedstock prices, particularly for rapeseed-derived inputs, continued to influence production economics and limited producers’ ability to offer price concessions. Manufacturing rates were deliberately controlled as suppliers focused on maintaining margin stability rather than expanding output. Demand from industrial lubricants, cosmetics, and polymer processing sectors remained consistent, providing a stable consumption base throughout the quarter.
Q2 2025:
The erucic acid price index in Europe softened as market conditions shifted toward improved supply and weaker demand fundamentals. Feedstock availability increased due to smoother oilseed procurement and higher processing rates, which reduced raw material cost pressures for producers. Industrial demand from lubricants, polymers, and specialty chemical sectors slowed as downstream manufacturers operated with sufficient inventories and deferred fresh purchases. Inventory levels across the supply chain rose, limiting producers’ pricing leverage.

The oil contained high levels of erucic acid, enabling the synthesis of water-degradable polyesteramides with polyethylene-like properties. These biobased polymers demonstrated strong thermal performance, significant hydrolytic degradability, and chemical recyclability, highlighting their potential as eco-friendly alternatives to petroleum-derived plastics.
Product Description
Erucic acid refers to a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid, chemically known as cis-13-docosenoic acid. It is majorly found in the seeds of certain Brassicaceae family plants, including wallflower, mustard, and rapeseed. High erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR) varieties are particularly cultivated for their high fatty acid, which can take up to 50% of the oil content in these seeds.
Erucic acid is widely used in the manufacture of erucamide, which enhances processing efficiency in polymer films. Additionally, it finds applications in cosmetics, personal care formulations, and industrial chemicals due to its emollient and conditioning properties. Its performance characteristics and renewable origin support its growing adoption across diverse industrial sectors.
