The ethyl ethanoate industrial production is the part of the chemical process which involves the conversion of ethanoic acid and alcohol mix in a process called esterification. The ethyl ethanoate production is done with deodorant and non-detergent soaps, personal care, detergents and other household products.
Ethyl ethanoate is a colorless liquid which is used with antiperspirant to keep the underarm dry. The formaldehyde emission from this type of goo creates an uncomfortable smell for people around you. The manufacturing practices employed by companies are not always in compliance with regulatory agencies like EPA.
The ethyl ethanoate production process
1.The raw material which is commonly used in the ethyl ethanoate production process is dimer acid. This kind of acid is manufactured by condensing ethylene oxide with the hydroxyl group of glycerol. The produced chemical has many uses like solvent, plasticizer, cleaner, synthetic rubbers and solvents which are used to dissolve dyes.
2.The dimer acid produced above is mixed with ethanol and some metal catalysts i.e., Ni and Pd. These metal catalysts help in achieving maximum reaction rates of the mixed chemicals i.e. ethyl ethanoate and ethanol. The metal catalysts are dissolved in toluene and then mixed with the dimer acid and ethanol. The reaction starts when the mixture is heated at a temperature of around 60-170 &#;.
3.The main reactant ethyl ethanoate is formed by esterification of ethanol with acetaldehyde. The reaction takes place when the mixture of ethanol, dimer acid and catalyst is heated for about 3-4 hours at a temperature of 70-80 &#; which finally produces 100% ethyl ethanoate.
4.The major product of the ethyl ethanoate industrial production process is a by-product which is hexanol. The reaction of ethanol and dimer acid produces water and acetaldehyde. The by-product hexanol is formed by the reaction of water and acetaldehyde which are further reacted to produce it at an enhanced rate.
5.The acetaldehyde produced in the ethyl ethanoate production process can be used as a starting substance for other chemical reactions as well. The acetaldehyde can also be changed into other chemicals such as formic acid and methanol. These chemicals are used in the production of formaldehyde, methanol, butanal etc.
Uses of ethyl ethanoate
1.Added to deodorant soaps and non-detergent soaps
This formaldehyde emission is the element of concern for people in the surrounding of you. The deodorant and non-deterrent soaps ethyl ethanoate production processes can be used as a source to eliminate this formaldehyde. It is expected that the deodorant soaps would be ready for the market by .
2.Going for an industrial production process
The manufacture of deodorant and non-detergent soaps is a medical product which is used in a large scale. The industry requires large volumes of ethyl ethanoate to avoid the usage of formaldehyde in their soaps. This has led to a drastic increase in the demand of ethyl ethanoate which is one of the reasons for many new production units coming up all over the globe.
One of the crucial processes of this industry is the solvent which is used to dissolve dyes and pigments. The present trend of increasing sales of these soaps has led to a rise in the demand for this solvent which in turn has pushed up the production and consumption rates globally.
3.Main ingredient in ethylene glycol
The ethyl ethanoate production is used as a key ingredient in the manufacture of ethylene glycol. The current market trends show an increasing demand for this product due to the upcoming environmental regulations on different chemicals which can be used as antifreeze agents.
4.Used for personal care products
The ethyl ethanoate production is also a main ingredient in the manufacture of detergent and personal care products like toilet soaps, bubble bath and shampoo. The demand for these products is expected to shoot up due to the increasing awareness among people about the harmful effects of these chemicals on human health.
5.Used in cleaning agents and other household products
The ethyl ethanoate production can be used in many fields like biochemistry, food industry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics etc. All these industries use this chemical as an antidote for unwanted smells or flavors which spoil peoples experience while using their product.
In conclusion, the ethyl ethanoate industrial production process has been used as a major source of raw material for the manufacture of many chemicals in recent years. The formaldehyde emission from deodorant soaps has been noticed by many people more commonly than ever. This is one of the leading causes for the growth of ethyl ethanoate industry. From non-detergent soap to detergent, which is basically used as a cleaner; all these soaps are made with ethyl ethanoate and non-detergent.
