| Abstract: | Anhydrous esterification of myristic acid with propylene was carried out in the temperature range of 110–145°C and pressure
from 190–195 psig in the presence of Amberlyst-15 (cation exchange resin) and Filtrol-24 (acid-treated clay) as catalysts.
The product ester, isopropyl myristate finds use in cosmetic and topical medicinal preparations where good absorption through
the skin is desired. Filtrol-24 is the catalyst of choice, and the recommended operating temperature is 130°C with a pressure
of 190 psig. |
