Definitions
- metal oxides such as zinc, tin (IV), iron (III) oxide, which have a low cost, but are often finely suspended in the reaction mixture and, to be removed, use has to be made of a successive step of coagulation and successive filtration;
- an object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparing fatty acid esters, which uses active and selective catalysts, which lead the reaction to be completed with the formation of the desired product of complete esterification of the polyol and that are easily and completely removable from the reaction medium.
- the process of the invention for preparing fatty acid esters comprises reacting said fatty acids with polyols in the presence of a catalyst, in which such catalyst is a solid having Lewis acid characteristics, such as, for example, a mixed oxide of silica with another oxide.
- the fatty acids that can be esterified preferably comprise C4-C24 acids.
- Such acids may further comprise one or more insaturations .
- oleic acid stearic acid, palmitoleic acid, palmitic acid, erucic acid, arachic acid, myristic acid, lauric acid, caprynic acid, pelargonic acid, caprylic acid, enantic acid, caproic acid, valeric acid, and butyrric acid are used.
- polyols that are used, these comprise molecules containing from 2-4 -OH groups that preferably form esters non containing hydrogen atoms in the ⁇ (beta) position relative to the carboxylic group.
- TMP tri-methylolpropane
- NPG neo-pentylglycol
- PE pentaerithrytol
- GLY glycerol

Description
PROCESS OR THE SYNTHESIS OF ESTERS OF FATTY ACIDS
" Process for the synthesis of esters of fatty acids"
[0001] Esterification of fatty acids of vegetal origin has a considerable industrial importance, since the products find a widespread application as lubricants, cooling lubricants and fluids for oleodynamic circuits. These products have important characteristics, such as a high biodegradability and a high flammability point, both due to the matrix having a natural origin.
The processes used today for the synthesis of fatty acid esters include for the use of catalysts that, however, have drawbacks (P. Bondioli, Oleochemical manufacture and applications, F.D. Gunstone, R.J. Hamilton eds . Wiley 2001, pp. 74-103):
- homogeneous acids (sulfuric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid) as described, for example, in EP 712.834 requiring a successive neutralization step, and cause the corrosion of the plants;
- homogeneous ZnCl2, which is expensive and difficult to be removed;
- organic titanates, which cannot be removed from the reaction product;
- powdery Zn, which forms soaps;
- metal oxides, such as zinc, tin (IV), iron (III) oxide, which have a low cost, but are often finely
suspended in the reaction mixture and, to be removed, use has to be made of a successive step of coagulation and successive filtration;
- Sn oxalate, for example, as described in US 7.989.648 Bl, which as in the cases described in the preceding point, requires a filtration at the end of the reaction on a filtering solid, such as, for example, Celite. Furthermore, the known catalysts suffer from a reduced selectivity. This causes problems, since the presence of partial esters (mono- and diglycerides ) affects the thermal stability, and moreover" "the" hydrolytic stability; instead, the presence of residual polyols leads to the formation of insolubles, while the presence of free acid affects the flame resistance as well as the thermal and hydrolytic stability.
Both the presence of soaps and that of partial esters affects the demulsibility, i.e., the ability of an oily phase to separate from water.
On the other hand, the presence of residual catalyst causes the formation of soaps and insolubles, and affects the oxidative stability.
Therefore, there is felt the need to develop new processes and new catalysts, which may be used in preparing esters and being without the limits of the prior art.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparing fatty acid esters, which uses active and selective catalysts, which lead the reaction to be completed with the formation of the desired product of complete esterification of the polyol and that are easily and completely removable from the reaction medium.
The industrial application of such esters is also described .
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0003] According to a first object, the process of the invention for preparing fatty acid esters comprises reacting said fatty acids with polyols in the presence of a catalyst, in which such catalyst is a solid having Lewis acid characteristics, such as, for example, a mixed oxide of silica with another oxide.
[0004] Particularly, the fatty acids that can be esterified preferably comprise C4-C24 acids.
Such acids may further comprise one or more insaturations .
Preferably, oleic acid, stearic acid, palmitoleic acid, palmitic acid, erucic acid, arachic acid, myristic acid, lauric acid, caprynic acid, pelargonic acid,
caprylic acid, enantic acid, caproic acid, valeric acid, and butyrric acid are used.
[0005] As regards the polyols that are used, these comprise molecules containing from 2-4 -OH groups that preferably form esters non containing hydrogen atoms in the β (beta) position relative to the carboxylic group. In a preferred aspect, to the purposes of the present invention, tri-methylolpropane (TMP) , neo-pentylglycol (NPG) , pentaerithrytol (PE), and glycerol (GLY) are used .
Particularly, it has been , seen that the "reactivity" of such polyols follows the following trend:
PE-TMP > GLY > NPG.
[0006] More in detail, the catalysts used in the present invention comprise a silica (Si02) solid matrix comprising a co-oxide with Lewis acid characteristics. According to a preferred aspect, such co-oxide is an aluminium (A1203) , zirconium (Zr02), titanium (Ti02) , niobium (Nb205) , lantanium (La203) oxide.
According to a still more preferred aspect, such co- oxide is an aluminium (A1203) , titanium (Ti02) , and particularly zirconium (Zr02) oxide.
Furthermore, the content of such co-oxide in the silica matrix preferably ranges between about 0.3-15%, about and still more preferably between 2-7%, and in a still
more preferred aspect, it is about 5% by weight on the total weight of the catalyst.
In fact, it has been noticed that below 5% (by weight on the total weight of the catalyst), the reaction speed, as well as the selectivity, decrease.
[0007] The preferred catalysts according to the invention are the following ones:
wherein "% co-oxide" indicates the percentage by weight of the co-oxide (zirconium, titanium, or aluminium co- oxide) relative to the total weight of the catalyst.
[0008] In a preferred aspect of the invention, the catalysts set forth above have preset porosity characteristics.
In fact, the following Table set forth the data relative to:
- BET
- PV (pore volume)
- APR (pore average radius) .
[0009] In fact, it has been noticed that the preferred catalysts have the lowest BET/PV ratio.
Particularly, such catalysts have a BET/PV ratio ranging between about 100-900, preferably between about 150-650, and still more preferably between about 170- 360.
[0010] The catalysts described in the present patent application represent a further object of the invention .
[0011] According to a further object, a process for preparing fatty acid esters is described.
Such process comprises the step of reacting the fatty acid with the polyol in the presence of one of the
catalysts described above, comprising silica oxide and a co-oxide selected from Zr02, Ti02, A1203, Nb205, and La203.
[0012] As regards the stoichiometric ratios between the fatty acid and the polyol, it has been seen that an excess of acid affords a quicker and more selective reaction, the unreacted acid being able to be separated subsequently .
For example, it is possible to use up to 5% of stoichiometric excess of acid relative to the polyol.
[0013] As regards the reaction temperature, it has been noticed that the reaction may be carried out between 150-250°C, while as regards the pressure, this is preferably a reduced pressure, for example, about 400 mbar .
[0014] In a preferred aspect, the reaction is further carried out under nitrogen flow, preferably ranging between 0.3-1.5 ml/min.
[0015] Advantageously, the process of the invention does not require the use of any reaction solvents.
[0016] As regards the amount of catalyst, this preferably ranges between 1 and 15% by weight (relative to the weight of the fatty acid) , preferably between 1.5 and 10% by weight, more preferably between 2 and 7% by weight.
[0017] According to a further and particularly advantageous aspect of the invention, the catalyst used in the process for the esterification of fatty acids is retrieved at the end of the reaction, and it may be used again to carry out the same reaction.
In fact, it has been noticed that the catalyst may be reused 5 times more (for 6 times in total) , preserving in an optimal manner its catalytic properties.
Particularly, to this aim, the catalyst is separated from the medium after the reaction by filtration.
Before being reused, it is washed with a polar solvent; in fact, such catalyst does not need to be calcinated at 400°C before being reused.
[0018] As stated above, a further object of the invention is represented by the use of the compounds obtained according to the process of the present invention as a lubricant, cooling lubricant, or fluid for oleodynamic circuits.
[0019] Particularly preferred examples according to the present invention are described in the following experimental section.

The mixture is heated at 200 °C, and through the tap, a reduced pressure of 400 mbar is applied. Withdrawals are made after lh, 2h, 4h, and 6h. From such withdrawals, the free acidity (FFA - Free Fatty Acid) is determined through acidimetric titration (EN 14104:2003) and the composition in tri- (tri) , di- (di) , and monoesters (mono) through a GC UNI 22053:1996 method.
