Application Fields
Food Additives | Lauric acid and its salts are commonly used as food additives, primarily to enhance the flavor and texture of food. It is sometimes used as a base ingredient for flavors in chocolates, candies, biscuits, and other foods. Its antibacterial properties make it suitable as a preservative for certain foods, extending their shelf life. |
Chemical Industry | Lauric acid can be used to prepare various surfactants, such as sodium laurate and lauric acid amide. These surfactants play roles in emulsification, cleaning, and foaming in products like detergents and cleaning agents. |
Pharmaceutical Manufacturing | In the pharmaceutical field, lauric acid is used to prepare certain drugs and drug carriers. It is also used in some topical medications for its bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects. As a synthetic raw material, lauric acid can be used to prepare pharmaceutical intermediates and catalysts in synthesis processes. |
Daily Chemical Industry | Lauric acid is one of the main components of soap, capable of producing rich lather and offering excellent cleaning ability. It is also used in hair care products like shampoos. Its moisturizing properties make it an important ingredient in body washes and hand creams, helping to keep the skin hydrated. Lauric acid is also a common cosmetic raw material used in the preparation of facial cleansers, skin creams, and other products, providing lubrication and moisturization. |
