Abstract

Lactic acid esters are prepared from impure lactic acid in an ether e.g. isopropyl ether, solvent, by stripping off the ether and passing the liquid or molten acid directly to an esterification vessel where it is esterified by a volatile alcohol and purified by distillation. The process may be continuous with recycling of the by-products of the stages and the esterification may be with a sulphuric acid catalyst or an ion-exchange resin and methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, n-propyl, butyl and amyl alcohols are specified. The ester may be hydrolysed preferably with superheated steam with or without catalysts or ion-exchange resins to yield pure lactic acid. Specification 907,321 is referred to.
