High performance enzyme-catalyzed synthesis and characterization of a nonionic surfactant

Sugar alcohol esters have a high potential for widespread application in various industries because of their surface active properties. In this work, fatty acid ester of a sugar alcohol was produced through Novozym 435-catalyzed esterification of xylitol and capric acid in nonaqueous media. Taguchi...
