Oleic Acid (cis-9-Octadecenoic Acid) is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid that occurs naturally in various animal and vegetable fats and oils. It is the most widespread fatty acid in nature. At room temperature, it is a colorless to pale yellow, oily liquid with a characteristic lard-like odor.
Commercially, Oleic Acid is typically obtained by the hydrolysis of plant-based oils rich in the compound, such as olive oil or tall oil, followed by fractional distillation. It is prized in industrial applications for its excellent stability compared to polyunsaturated fatty acids, its good solvency, and its ability to act as a versatile chemical building block.
