Hexacosanoic acid, also known as cerotic acid, is a saturated fatty acid with the formula CH3(CH2)24COOH. It is a white, waxy solid that is found naturally in beeswax, carnauba wax, and other plant and animal sources. It is also a component of the human skin surface lipid layer, and is thought to contribute to the skin's barrier function. Hexacosanoic acid is not typically synthesized, but can be isolated from natural sources. Its effects are not well understood, but it is believed to be relatively inert. It is studied for its potential use in cosmetics and other applications. Its importance lies in its role as a building block for waxes, which have many uses.'
