Methyl palmitate also known as palmitic acid methyl ester, is a fatty acid methyl ester with a molecular formula of C17H34O2. Methyl palmitate is a clear colorless crystalline solid in room temperature with low melting point of 32-35 degrees centigrade and insoluble in water.
The production of methyl palmitate is done by reacting methanol and palmitic acid through an esterification process under temperature of 80 degrees centigrade and pressure of 6 bar.
