A process for obtaining high sulfate adhesive fatty acids, hydroxycaproic hydroxycaproic of oxyalkylated fatty acids or fatty acids

摘要

To obtain highly sulphated fatty acids, hydroxy fatty acids or oxalkylated hydroxy fatty acids, the reaction mixture obtained from the sulphatation of unsaturated fatty acid esters and/or saturated hydroxy fatty acid esters and/or oxalkylated hydroxy fatty acid esters is neutralized, separated if necessary from the brine, diluted with water and hydrolysed at a temperature between 20 DEG C and 160 DEG C after addition of a quantity of lye whose molar content is not greater than that of the organically bound sulphuric acid. After separation of the phases containing the non-sulphated starting products and the highly sulphated fatty acids, the latter are isolated from the aqueous phase.
