PRODUZIONE DI ESTERI SACCAROSIO-ACIDI GRASSI

摘要

Sucrose-fatty acid esters are by melting an alkali metal soap of a fatty acid free of water or other solvent, adding sucrose and a fatty acid ester to the molten soap to give a homogeneous molten mixture of these reaction components, and heating the molten mixture at a temperature from 125 DEG C to 165 DEG C under vacuum. Conventional basic transesterification catalysts and/or inert metal salts may be added to the molten mixture.
