Synthesis
Possible synthetic method A:
(1), Monoglyceride is obtained by esterification of glycerin and coconut acid;
(2), Cocomonoglyceride sulfate is obtained by esterification of monoglyceride and sulfur trioxide;
(3), Sodium cocomonoglyceride sulfate is obtained by neutrallzation of cocomonoglyceride sulfate and sodium hydroxide solution.
(4), Obtain a solid product by spray - drying method.
In the method, monoglyceride purity must reach more than 90 - 96%.
