Patent abstract
Methods for synthesizing oleo-furan surfactants from fatty aldehydes and compositions of furan based surfactants synthesized from such methods are disclosed. One method of forming a surfactant can include a hydroxyalkylation reaction of two methylfuran molecules with a fatty aldehyde molecule to form a di-furan product. This method can also include forming a surfactant from the di-furan product formed from the hydroxyalkylation. In particular, this di-furan product can be a surfactant precursor that is functionalized to form a surfactant.
