Characteristics and application of coconut oil fatty acids
Coconut oil fatty acids: It is a long-chain fatty acid. It is a white solid with a special smell. It is mainly composed of medium-chain fatty acids, including caprylic acid, capric acid and lauric acid..
Basic Information
Chemical structure：Coconut oil fatty acid is a saturated fatty acid with a chemical formula of C19H21NO5 and a molecular weight of 343.38
Physical properties：It is a white to light yellow solid at room temperature with a special odor.
Chemical properties：Coconut oil fatty acids have moderate acidity and can react with alkali to form corresponding salts. Due to its long chain structure, coconut oil acid has good stability in chemical reactions.
Solubility：Good solubility, easily soluble in alcohol and ether solvents, insoluble in water.
CAS: 61788-47-4
HS Code: 3402420000
Anti-wear and friction reduction performance：
Coconut fatty acids can be formulated with specific compounds, such as zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates and octadecylamine, to improve the load-carrying capacity and tribological properties of lubricants.
Antioxidant properties：
The natural antioxidant components in coconut oil fatty acids can delay the oxidation of lubricants and improve the stability of lubricants
Thickening and stabilization：
Coconut oil fatty acids can be used to increase the viscosity and stability of lubricating oils, improving their performance at different temperatures
Pour Point Depressants and Viscosity Improvers：
Copolymers of coconut oil fatty acids, alkyl acrylates and styrene can be used as pour point depressants and viscosity improvers for lubricating oils
Fire-resistant and biodegradable hydraulic fluid：
Trimethylolpropane esters derived from coconut oil fatty acids can be used to make fire-resistant and biodegradable hydraulic oils
Biodegradable lubricant base oil：
Coconut oil fatty acids can be used as base oil for biodegradable lubricants due to their good biodegradability and environmental friendliness..
Application
Diesel engine lubricating oil：Lubricating oils with added coconut oil fatty acids exhibit good anti-wear, anti-oxidation and detergent dispersancy properties in diesel engines, which can extend the service life of the engine.
Hydraulic oil：Hydraulic oil with added coconut oil fatty acid has good anti-wear, anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion properties, which can improve the stability and service life of the hydraulic system.
Metalworking Oil：Coconut oil fatty acids play a lubricating, cooling and rust-proof role in metalworking fluids, improving processing efficiency and product quality.
Gear Oil:
Coconut oil fatty acid is added to gear oil as an extreme pressure anti-wear agent to improve the load-bearing capacity of gears and reduce wear and noise.
