Synthesis method
1. Industrial production methods can be summarized into two categories: one is obtained from natural vegetable oils through saponification or decomposition under high temperature and pressure; the other is separation from synthetic fatty acids. Japan mainly uses coconut oil and palm kernel oil as raw materials to produce lauric acid. Natural vegetable oils used to prepare lauric acid include: coconut oil, litsea cubeba kernel oil, palm kernel oil and mountain pepper kernel oil. Other plants, such as palm kernel oil, tree seed oil, camphor tree seed oil, etc., can also be used to produce lauric acid in the service industry. The C12 fraction remaining after extracting dodecanoic acid contains a large amount of dodecenoic acid, which can be hydrogenated at normal pressure without a catalyst and can convert hydrocarbons into dodecanoic acid with a conversion rate of more than 86%.
2. From coconut oil and others Vegetable oil is separated and refined after hydrolysis.
3. Natural in the form of glycerides Exist in coconut oil, litsea cubeba kernel oil, palm kernel oil and pepper kernel oil. Industrially, it can be obtained from the hydrolysis of natural oils. Add coconut oil, water and catalyst to the autoclave, and hydrolyze it into glycerin and fatty acids at 250°C and about 5MPa pressure, which contain 45% to 80% dodecanoic acid. Dodecanoic acid is obtained by distillation.
4.Palm kernel oil method Malaysia’s palm oil production accounts for more than half of the world’s total production. Among them, palm kernel oil is mainly composed of C6 to C18 fatty acids, usually lauric acid accounts for 46% to 51%.
5.Peppercorn Kernel Oil Method Pipermum nidus belongs to the Lauraceae family and is a deciduous tree. The drupe of mountain pepper is spherical. The fruit is green at first and turns black when mature. The kernel oil of mountain pepper contains more than 30% lauric acid.
Other plants, such as palm kernel oil, sassafras seed oil, camphor tree seed oil, etc. can also be used to prepare lauric acid.

Purpose
1. Mainly used as raw materials for the production of alkyd resins, wetting agents, detergents, pesticides, surfactants, food additives and cosmetics. This product is often used as a lubricant and has multiple functions such as lubricant and vulcanizing agent. However, due to its corrosive effect on metal, it is generally not used in plastic products such as wires and cables. This product is most widely used in surfactant industry, and can also be used in spice industry and pharmaceutical industry.
2.Used as surface treatment agent for preparing bonding. It is also used in the manufacture of alkyd resins, chemical fiber oils, pesticides, synthetic fragrances, plastic stabilizers, anti-corrosion additives for gasoline and lubricating oils. A large number of surfactants are used in the manufacture of various types of surfactants, such as cationic types include laurylamine, lauryl nitrile, trilaurylamine, lauryl dimethylamine, lauryl trimethyl ammonium salt, etc.; anionic types include sodium lauryl sulfate, Lauric acid sulfate salt, lauryl sulfate triethanolammonium salt, etc.; zwitterionic types include lauryl betaine, lauric acid imidazoline, etc.; non-ionic surfactants include poly-L-alcohol monolaurate, polyoxyethylene laurate, etc. Acid ester, lauric acid glyceryl polyoxyethylene ether, lauric acid diethanolamide, etc. In addition, it is also used as a food additive and in the manufacture of cosmetics.
3.Lauric acid is a raw material for the production of soaps, detergents, cosmetic surfactants and chemical fiber oils.
