High Purity Lauric acid Powder /Dodecanoic acid CAS143-07-7

Details:

Cinnamic acid (English: Lauric acid), also known as dodecanoic acid, is a saturated fatty acid. Its molecular formula is C12H24O2. Although it is called lauric acid, it only accounts for 1-3% of the content of lauric acid. At present, it is found that the vegetable oils with high lauric acid content include coconut oil 45-52%, oil palm seed oil 44-52%, babassu seed oil 43-44%, etc. Lauric acid is a saturated fatty acid.

1. It is mainly used as a raw material for the production of alkyd resins, wetting agents, detergents, insecticides, surfactants, food additives and cosmetics. This product is often used as a lubricant and has multiple functions such as lubricant and vulcanizing agent. However, due to its corrosive effect on metals, it is generally not used in plastic products such as wires and cables.
