Application:
Lauric acid is a saturated fatty acid commonly found in vegetable oils. While it is not a primary component in glove manufacturing, it may have some potential applications. It can be used as a slip or lubricating agent in the manufacturing process of gloves, it can improve the flow and workability of the polymer matrix and making it easier to process and mould the gloves. Lauric acid has moisturizing properties, and it may be incorporated into glove formulations to provide a moisturizing effect on the wearer's hands.
