Comparison studies on lauric acid ethoxylated using homogenous and heterogenous catalysts
The application of homogenous and heterogeneous catalysts for ethoxylation of lauric acid (LAc) with ethylene oxide (EO) was conducted in this study. Ethoxylation reaction of LAc with EO with the mole ratio 1:3 (LAc:EO) have been done at reaction temperature 130-135 oC under 1.8 bar pressure to prod...
