| Oleochemistry - Ester production |
 |
The properties of a fatty acid ester depend on :
- nature of the (poly)alcohol backbone
- nature of the fatty acid backbone
- degree of esterification
- position of the hydroxyl groups esterified (e.g. terminal, vicinal,...)
Solvay's versatile product line consisting of Diglycerol and Polyglycerol-3, combined with the large variety of fatty acids and esterification techniques available, make it possible to manufacture tailor-made fatty acid esters meeting the requirements of virtually any specific application.
