Lignoceroyl ethanolamide is a member of the family of fatty N-acyl ethanolamines collectively called endocannabinoids. Whereas lignoceric acid has been detected at relatively high levels in rat cerebrospinal fluid, the specific role and relative importance of its ethanolamine metabolite have not been determined.

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)tetracosanamide acts as a crude oil emulsifier.

ChEBI:Lignoceroyl-EA is a N-(saturated fatty acyl)ethanolamine.
