Copper oleate is a specialty chemical compound used primarily in agriculture as a fungicide and micronutrient and in coatings and plastics as a heat stabilizer. Production remains limited to specialized manufacturers due to the compound's niche applications and relatively low overall volume demand. Pricing for copper oleate has followed the broader trend in copper markets. As copper metal prices have experienced some volatility in 2025, copper oleate pricing has fluctuated accordingly. Prices are also influenced by formulation grade (technical vs agricultural), packaging formats, and purity levels.
