Study of the surface-active properties of partial glycerides
In works on the research of surface activity of mixtures of mono- and diglycerides in comparison with pure monoglycerides separated by molecular distillation, it is shown that monoglycerides decrease surface tension on the boundary of the oil-water system considerably stronger than a mixture of mono- and diglycerides. Such decrease in sueface tension depends on the length of a hydrocarbon chain of monoglyceride fatty acid radical.
