Synthesis of Fatty and N,N'-carbonyl Difatty Amides from Palm Oil and Their Applications as a Clay Modifier for Polylactic Acid/Epoxidized Palm Oil/Clay Nanocomposites Preparation
N,N-carbonyl difatty amides (CDFAs) were synthesized from palm oil and urea using sodium ethoxide as a catalyst. Ethyl fatty esters (EFEs) and glycerol were produced as by-products. The synthesis was carried out by refluxing the reactants in ethanol. In this reaction, palm oil gave 79% CDFAs after 8...
