rasvahappoesteri
Rasvahappoesteri, or fatty acid ester, is a type of ester derived from the reaction between a fatty acid and an alcohol. These compounds are widely found in nature and play crucial roles in various biological and industrial processes. Fatty acid esters are formed through a condensation reaction, where a molecule of water is eliminated as the ester bond forms between the carboxyl group of the fatty acid and the hydroxyl group of the alcohol.
In nature, triglycerides, which are a type of fatty acid ester, serve as the primary storage form
Industrially, fatty acid esters are used in a variety of applications, including lubricants, solvents, and food
The properties of fatty acid esters, such as their solubility, viscosity, and stability, depend on the specific
