Manuela Parini – SILO SpA

Characteristics of the chemical bond butyric acid+glycerol:

1. Covalent bond (the attraction force between 2 atoms that share a couple of electrons)
2. Very stable (up-to 230° C)
3. Stability non-pH dependent (practically no problem of dissociated or undissociated form)
4. Odorless
