FATTY ALCOHOL

Means an alcohol containing an unbroken chain of at least 7 carbon atoms bonded to a hydroxy group.

HIGHER FATTY ACID

Means a monocarboxylic acid containing an unbroken chain of at least 7 carbon atoms bonded to a carboxyl group, e.g., lauric, palmitic, stearic, oleic, ricinoleic, linoleic, and behenolic, etc. Where there are several unbroken chains of carbon atoms bonded to the carboxyl group, one of the chains must contain at least 7 carbon atoms.
