Overview
Aliphatic compounds are organic compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. They are the most abundant type of organic compounds on Earth and are the major component of petroleum, natural gas, and coal. Aliphatic compounds have a wide range of applications and are used in the production of plastics, pharmaceuticals, rubber, and fragrances. They also provide a useful source of energy, making them an important part of the modern economy. Aliphatic compounds are being studied for their potential in the development of renewable energy sources and are increasingly being studied for their role in climate change.
