Market Definition
Lactic acid ethyl ester is also known as ethyl lactate which refers to a monobasic ester formed from ethanol and lactic acid and is commonly used as a solvent. This molecule, which is made from biodegradable sources and can be used as a water-risible degreaser, is found in minute amounts in chicken, wine, and other foods. One of the most common bio solvents is lactic acid ester. Lactic acid is used in its production. Natural raw resources such as sugar, beet, sugar cane, and maize are used to make lactic acid. The esterification mechanism next converts the lactic acid into an ester.
