Optimization of lipase-catalyzed synthesis of polyethylene glycol stearate in a solvent-free system

Polyethylene glycol stearate is widely used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetic industries. The current work describes the synthesis and optimization of polyethylene glycol stearate by esterification of polyethylene glycol 600 and stearic acid using Fermase CALBex 10000, a commercial immobilized lipase...
