Global Glycerol Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025



Research Summary

Glycerol, also known as glycerin or glycerine, is a simple polyol compound with the chemical formula C₃H₈O₃. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is sweet-tasting and non-toxic. Glycerol is a natural compound derived from vegetable oils or animal fats during the production of soap and biodiesel through a process called saponification or transesterification. It is widely used in various industries due to its moisturizing, lubricating, and solvent properties. In the food industry, glycerol serves as a humectant, sweetener, and preservative. In pharmaceuticals and personal care products, it is used in formulations for creams, lotions, and cough syrups. Additionally, glycerol is used in industrial applications, such as antifreeze, plasticizers, and as a raw material for the synthesis of other chemicals. Its versatility and safety make it a valuable substance across multiple fields.
