Lauric acid cas 143-07-7, also known as dodecanoic acid, is a saturated fatty acid. Its molecular formula is C12H24O2. Although it is named lauric acid, it only accounts for 1-3% of the lauric oil content. At present, the vegetable oils with high lauric acid content are coconut oil 45-52%, palm kernel 44-52%, babassu kernel 43-44%, etc. Lauric acid belongs to saturated fatty acid.
