Sucrose Ester and its Application for Sugar Manufacturing

Kawase, N.  1981.  In the “Snell Process,” a sucrose ester is synthesized, with a good yield, by an inter-esterification action between the sucrose and a lower-alcohol ester of a higher fatty acid in the presence of a transesterification catalyst. Surfactants are effective in improving the physical property of highly concentrated molasses, especially in lowering their surface tension and viscosity.
