PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF FLOWABLE, ANHYDROUS ACYLOXYALKANESULFONATES AND THEIR USE

摘要

In the process of the invention, in the context of the esterification of fatty acids with hydroxyalkanesulfonates, the reaction product (molten mass) at 180 to 250.degree.C is sheared in such a manner during the cooling to 150 to 50.degree.C that the mean particle size of the product is < 100 .mu.m. The acyloxyalkanesulfonate product thus obtained is still highly flowable, pumpable and the like, even at temperatures in the range from 60 to 100.degree.C and can be stored in the fluid state without change at these temperatures even over a long period.
