introduction | the plate 20 is sorbitol anhydride doidyl ester, amber oily liquid, miscible with organic solvents and oils, and becomes a semi-emulsion solution in water. |
application | span 20 can be obtained by the reaction of sorbitol anhydride and lauric acid, and can be used as a gas chromatography stationary liquid, tail reducing agent, emulsifier and wetting agent for the support. |
identification test | solubility can be dispersed in hot and cold water (OT-42). |
content analysis | accurately weigh about 25g of sample, put into a 500ml round bottom flask, add 250ml of ethanol and 7.5g of potassium hydroxide, and mix. Install condenser and heat reflux for 1~2 hours. Move a 800ml beaker, rinse the flask with 100ml hot water, and incorporate the washed liquid into the beaker. Heat in a steam bath until the ethanol boils, add water from time to time to make up for the amount of alcohol lost, and evaporate until there is basically no ethanol to smell. Adjust the final capacity with hot water about 250ml. Neutralize the saponification solution with 50% sulfuric acid solution, add excess 10%, heat and stir until the fatty acid layer is precipitated. Move into a 500m1 separatory funnel and wash with hot water for 3-4 times, 20ml each time, to wash out polyol and merge polyol liquid. The liquid was extracted 3 times with petroleum ether, 20ml each time. The petroleum ether layer and the fatty acid layer were evaporated in the weighed evaporating dish to dry, cool, and weighed. The polyol solution is neutralized with 10% potassium hydroxide solution to pH 7 and determined with an appropriate pH meter. The liquid is evaporated to a paste and extracted with hot ethanol to separate the polyol. The ethanol extract was transferred to a weighed evaporation dish and evaporated on a steam bath to dryness, cooling and weighing. Excessive drying and heating should be avoided throughout the process. |
