Abstract
Octadecyl acrylate was synthesized by direct\|esterification from octadecyl alcohol and acrylic acid taking p \|methy benzene sulfonic acid as catalyst. The influences of some parameters, including molar ratio of acrylic acid to octadecyl alcohol,amount of catalyst and inhibitor,reaction temperature, reaction time, on the synthesis were investigated. The conversion rate of product reaches 98% under the optimal experimental conditions, namely the molar ratio of acrylic acid to octadecyl alcohol is 1.2, the amounts of p \|methy benzene sulfonic acid and hydroquinone are 1.0% and 0.8% respectively, reaction temperature is 120 ℃, and the reaction time is 8 h. The octadecyl acrylate was identified by IR spectra and H\|NMR.
