Title: How to get 100% lactic acid?
Post by: ssrimurugan on September 11, 2004, 02:36:44 AM

Commercial lactic acid is a 80 - 90% solution in water. Suggest a method to concentrate this to a 100% lactic acid, though the procedure may lead to oligomerisation.

Unfortunately this acid in a crystal form not exist. In experimental articles always use a water solution of lactic acid.
