EC number: 205-582-1
Trade name: KORTACID 1299
Chemical Name: Lauric Acid
Kortacid 1299, lauric acid or dodecanoic acid, is the main acid in coconut oil and in palm kernal oil, and is believed to have antimicrobial properties.
Kortacid 1299 is a white, powdery solid with a faint odor of bay oil or soap.
Kortacid 1299, although slightly irritating to mucous membranes, has a very low toxicity and so is used in many soaps and shampoos.
Sodium lauryl sulfate is the most common lauric-acid derived compound used for this purpose.
Because Kortacid 1299 has a non-polar hydrocarbon tail and a polar carboxylic acid head, it can interact with polar solvents (the most important being water) as welll as fats, allowing water to dissolve fats.
This accounts for the abilities of shampoos to remove grease from the hair.
Kortacid 1299 is lauric acid (>99%).
Kortacid 1299 is excellent for making soaps, shampoos and candles.
Kortacid 1299 has many other names and they are as follows: n-Dodecanoic acid; Dodecylic acid; Dodecoic acid; Laurostearic acid; Vulvic acid; 1-Undecanecarboxylic acid; Duodecylic acid.
The melting point for Kortacid 1299 is 111.2F - 114.8F.

Description of Kortacid 1299:
Like many other fatty acids, Kortacid 1299 is inexpensive, has a long shelf-life, and is non-toxic and safe to handle.
Kortacid 1299 is mainly used for the production of soaps and cosmetics.
For these purposes, Kortacid 1299 is neutralized with sodium hydroxide to give sodium laurate, which is a soap.
Most commonly, sodium laurate is obtained by saponification of various oils, such as coconut oil.
These precursors give mixtures of sodium laurate and other soaps.
Kortacid 1299 occurs as a white crystalline powde
