Applications / Functions of Myristic acid powder

1. Myristic acid CAS 544-63-8 is mainly used as a raw material for the production of surfactants, and is used in the production of fatty acid esters of sorbitan anhydride, fatty acid esters of glycerol, fatty acid esters of ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, etc. It can also be used in the production of myristic acid. It can also be used to produce isopropyl myristate.
2. Myristic acid powder is also used as defoamer and flavour enhancer. Myristic acid powder can be used to formulate various edible spices according to GB2760-89.
3. Used as chemical reagent, Myristic acid Raw Materials is also used in the synthesis of spices and organic substances.

Myristic acid powder is used in the manufacture of emulsifiers, waterproofing agents, curing agents, PVC heat stabilizers and plasticizers, etc. It is also the raw material of spices and medicine.

Determination of calcium and magnesium in hard water. Organic synthesis.

Physicochemical Property of Myristic acid powder

Myristic acid CAS 544-63-8 White to yellowish-white hard solid, occasionally lustrous crystalline solid, or white to yellowish-white powder.

Relative density 0.8739 (80 ℃), melting point 54.5 ℃, boiling point 326.2 ℃, refractive index (nD60) 1.4310. Myristic acid powder insoluble in water, soluble in ethanol, ether and chloroform.

Myristic acid Raw Materials contains about 70% ~ 80%, other coconut oil, palm kernel oil also contains.

Production methodprocess of Myristic acid powder

• Myristic acid Raw Materials can be obtained by vacuum fractional distillation of mixed fatty acids or methyl esters of mixed fatty acids obtained from coconut oil and palm kernel oil.
• Laboratory preparation can be by glycerol tris (tetradecanoic acid) ester and 10% sodium hydroxide solution saponification, and then acidification with hydrochloric acid to get the free Myristic acid powder. can also be obtained by tetradecanol method.
