Oleochemicals are organic compounds made from the hydrolysis of plant oils and animal fats. They comprise fatty alcohols (FALs), fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs), free fatty acids (FFAs), fatty amines, and glycerin. They are commonly utilized in the manufacturing of toothpaste, household cleaners, printer inks, lubricants, pesticides, paints, and condiments. They are also used as a substitute for petroleum-based products, which are known as petrochemicals.
