Esteem Solution

Specialty esters are used in a wide range of industrial applications, primarily as plasticizers in plastics and rubber, but also as emollients in personal care products, solvents in coatings, lubricants, and even in certain medical applications, depending on the specific ester type.

Glycerol esters are formed through an esterification reaction between glycerol and fatty acids. This reaction is also known as glycerolysis. Glycerol esters are used in many industries, including food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Fatty acid esters (FAEs) are a type of ester that result from the combination of a fatty acid with an alcohol. When the alcohol component is glycerol, the fatty acid esters produced can be monoglycerides, diglycerides, or triglycerides.

A "fatty acid from oleochemical" refers to a fatty acid molecule that is extracted and refined from natural vegetable oil. Which are considered "oleochemicals"; essentially, it's produced through a process called hydrolysis where the triglycerides in the oil are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol.

Fatty amines are made by reacting fatty acids with ammonia or primary amines. They can also be made by hydrogenating fatty nitriles, which are produced by reacting fatty acids, triglycerides, or fatty esters with ammonia.

Glycerine is a type of carbohydrate known as a sugar alcohol or a polyol. This odorless liquid has a sweet taste and a syrupy consistency. While glycerin occurs naturally in plants through the fermentation of sugars, most of the glycerin nowadays is produced from the hydrolysis of fats and oils.
