The condensation of glycidol on alcohols in the presence of alkaline catalysts is known especially in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,089,569 and 2,131,142 of Ludwig Orthner and Claus Heuck.
However, the process indicated in these patents does not permit production of products that are sufficiently soluble from simple fatty alcohols or those which present an ether or thioether group. In fact, glycidol largely condenses on itself, forming polyglycerols that are immiscible with lipophilic chain compounds. This is not astonishing since glycidol is well known for its pronounced tendency to polymerize at ordinary temperature in the presence of basic catalysts such as methylamine, pyridine, sodium, potassium or sodium methylate, and this tendency to polymerization has been pointed out, particularly in the Journal of Polymer Science pt.A-1, 4(5), 1253-9 (1966) (English). See also Chemical Abstracts vol. 64, 19781.
On the other hand, it is very surprising to observe that by slow addition of glycidol to long chain alpha diols in the presence of alkaline catalysts at a temperature of 120°-180° C, preferably 140° to 160° C, the reaction medium remains perfectly homogeneous and that hydrosolubility is reached for a relatively low mean degree of polymerization n.
The alpha diols thus appear to constitute a special group in the class of alcohols, whether it is a matter of simple alcohols or of alcohols comprising an ether and/or a thioether group.
Polycondensation of glycidol is effected preferably in an inert atmosphere, e.g. nitrogen. A mixture of compounds is formed that are all of the general formula (I), but for which compounds the number of fixed glycidol molecules can be greater or less than the statistical mean value corresponding to the number of glycidol molecules used per molecule of mercaptan. As a result there is obtained a mixture of compounds with different values for n, in other words, having longer or shorter hydrophilic chains, the whole of the n values being statistically distributed about a mean value corresponding to the number of glycidol molecules per alpha diol molecule.
The alpha diols of formula (II) which are used as starting material can be prepared by conventional processes such as:
hydroxylation of non saturated derivatives; hydrolysis of substituted oxirane cycles; condensation of fatty chain mercaptans on glycidol; condensation of thioglycerol on alkyl halides or on fatty chain alpha olefins; and condensation of glycerol, glycerol isopropylidene and thioglycerol on substituted oxiranes or on alkyl tosylates or mesylates etc.
As basic catalysts there are used alkaline hydroxides or alcoholates, preferably of sodium or potassium, in proportions of 0.5 to 10 mole % and preferably from 4 to 8 mole % with reference to the utilized diols.
The addition of glycidol to the reaction medium is effected slowly. It can last from several minutes to several hours (up to about 4 hours).
In the case of polyhydroxyl thioethers, the corresponding sulfoxides can be prepared according to a known process by addition of hydrogen peroxide, 30-35%, possibly in the presence of 0.5 to 10% by weight of a lower carboxylic acid, e.g. acetic acid, which allows utilization of less glycidol to obtain water solubility.
The invention likewise concerns products obtained according to the above described process. Most are more or less consistent pastes whose properties differ according to the nature of the R radical, of the intermediate ether, thioether or hydroxymethylene group when they are present, and upon the degree of polymerization n.
These are surfactants, and as the case may be, they are foaming agents, softeners, thickeners, peptizers or emulsifiers. Their water solubility is attained with a relatively low degree of polymerization n.
Thus, for example, products for which the lipophilic part is constituted by 11 to 14 carbon atoms are foaming agents which are remarkable in comparison to conventional non-ionic compounds, for substantially lower n values.
With longer hydrocarbon chains there are obtained thickening or emulsifier products. These emulsifiers are especially effective for polar oils and similar products.
The intrinsic nature of the hydrophilic groups of these non-ionic compounds permits, moreover, a very good compatibility with concentrated alkali solutions, which property permits their use in the textile industry, e.g. for mercerizing.
The present invention also relates to compositions intended to be used in cosmetics, especially shampoos, hair dyes, dispersions, emulsions or solutions, these compositions being characterized substantially in that they contain from 0.1 to 80 percent by weight of at least one product of formula (I).
The present invention also relates to dispersions and emulsions, and especially dispersions or oil-in-water emulsions of polar oils.
As examples of polar oils there can be mentioned vegetable oils such as peanut oil, castor oil, sweet almond oil, olive oil and corn oil, esters of glycerol such as glycerol stearates, glycerides of fatty acids such as triglycerides of octanoic and decanoic acids, fatty alcohols such as 2-octyl 1-dodecanol, fatty acids such as stearic acid, alkyl esters of fatty acids such as alkylesters of adipic, myristic and palmitic acid and alkyl esters of fatty acids of lanolin and especially isopropyl myristate or palmitate, ethyl palmitate, butyl stearate, 2-ethyl hexyl palmitate and isopropyl esters of fatty acids of lanolin and solvents such as chlorobenzene, 1,4-dichloro butane, monochloro butane, trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene.
The "oil-in-water" emulsions can include from 2 to 60% oil, 0.1 to 20% emulsifier and 30 to 80% water.
Polyhydroxyl non-ionic compounds of the present invention can also be used to disperse alkaline earth soaps and especially calcium and magnesium soaps.
For each gram of soap to be dispersed, there is utilized 0.02-1 g, preferably 0.1-0.2 g of the compounds of formula (I) in 100 ml solution to 400 ppm calcium chloride.
The test used to show this property is the one proposed by J. Alba Mendoza and C. Gomez Herrera at the fifth international detergents conference in Barcelona in 1968.
The table below shows, for certain compounds of formula (I) whose preparation appears in the examples which follow, the minimum quantity Q (in milligrams) that is necessary to disperse 50 mg sodium oleate in 50 ml water with hardness corresponding to a content of 400 ppm calcium chloride, under the test conditions described by Alba Mendoza.
The lauryl sulfate of sodium which appears in the table was selected as control because it represents the medium type of dispersant for alkaline earth soaps.

The compositions, dispersions and emulsions can be stored in aerosol cans under pressure and containing conventional aerosol propellants such as monochlorotrifluoromethane or dichlorodifluoromethane. They can also include various adjuvants, e.g. other surfactants.
The compatibility of most of the compounds of formula (I) with aqueous solutions of alkaline hydroxides, e.g. with 40% NaOH, is one of their particularly advantageous properties which permits their use in the textile industry, e.g. for mercerizing.
EXAMPLE 1
A mixture of compounds of formula (I) in which R indicates a mixture of alkyl radicals having 9 to 12 carbon atoms, n has a mean statistical value of 3.5, is prepared by polycondensation of the glycidol on a mixture of C 11 -C 14 alpha diols sold by Archer Daniels Midland Co., under the tradename ADOL 114.
To 54 g of the above mentioned diols in a mixture, with a hydroxyl number of 520, there are added 3.75 ml of a solution of sodium methylate in methanol to a concentration of 4.6 meq/g (milliequivalents/gram). The mixture is heated to 155° C, eliminating the methanol, and there are introduced, drop by drop, in the course of 70 minutes, 72 g of glycidol (0.87 equivalents epoxide).
The product thus obtained is a thick brown oil that is perfectly soluble in water and in 40% sodium hydroxide. The Kraft point for a 1% solution is below 10° C. The cloud point for a 0.5% solution is above 100° C, both in demineralized water and in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights measured by use of the Ross-Miles apparatus, for concentrations of 0.05%, 0.2% and 0.5% at 35° C in hard water (corresponding to 340 ppm CaCO 3 ) are respectively 13 cm, 18.5 cm and 20 cm.
When applied as a 5% aqueous solution to the eyes of rabbits, the product is absolutely non-irritating.
EXAMPLE 2
A mixture of compounds of formula (I) in which R is a mixture of alkyl radicals having 13 to 16 carbon atoms, n has a mean statistical value of 3.1, is prepared by polycondensation of the glycidol on a mixture of C 15 -C 18 alpha diols sold by the Archer Daniels Midland Co. under the name ADOL 158.
To 43 g of the mixture of the mentioned diols with a hydroxyl number of 430, there is added 1 ml of solution of sodium methylate in methanol, to the concentration of 4.6 meq/g and, at 155° C, drop by drop, in the course of 105 minutes, 38 g of glycidol.
The product thus obtained is water soluble and has a very slight opalescence.
The Kraft point is below 0° C.
The cloud point for a 0.5% solution is above 100° C in demineralized water as well as in water that contains 10% NaCl.
EXAMPLE 3
A mixture of compounds of general formula (I) in which R is the radical R'--S--CH 2 --, wherein R' represents a mixture of straight chain and branched C 12 -C 15 alkyl radicals of which about 14% are 2-methyl alkanols sold by the Shell Co. under the name Dobanol 25, n representing a mean statistical value of 2.5, is prepared as follows.
In a first stage, glycerol alkyl thioethers are prepared by reaction of the above mentioned alcohols with methane sulfochloride, with subsequent condensation of the thioglycerol in an alkaline medium.
205 g (1 mole) of Dobanol 25 are mixed with 101 g triethylamine in 250 ml benzene and in the course of 90 minutes there are introduced, at 30°-40° C, 114 g (1 mole) methane sulfochloride. After 1 hour of additional stirring the level of reaction is 97.5%.
After filtration of the triethylamine hydrochloride, there is added a stoichiometric quantity of the sodium derivative of the thioglycerol under nitrogen. The reaction mixture is brought to 100° C with partial elimination of the benzene and with addition of 30 ml of methanol in the course of the reaction to avoid thickening of the reaction mass.
The alkyl thioglycerol is then expanded with 100 ml water, decanted and then vacuum dried to a temperature of 100° C.
To 65 g (0.2 mole) of the product thus obtained, there are added 2 ml of methanol solution of sodium methylate to 4.6 meq/g. The mixture is heated to 155° C and there is then added, dropwise in the course of 90 minutes, 0.5 mole glycidol.
The thioether prepared in this way can be oxidized to sulfoxide with stoichiometric quantities of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of 0.5% acetic acid, yielding a product that is water soluble.
The Kraft point at 1% is 19° C. The cloud point of the product at 0.5% is 80° C in demineralized water and 68° C in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights measured with the Ross-Miles apparatus at 35° C in hard water are respectively 10.5 cm, 16.5 cm and 18 cm for concentrations of 0.05%, 0.2% and 0.5%, respectively.
EXAMPLE 4
A mixture of compounds substantially identical with those of Example 3, with the difference that n represents a mean statistical value of 3 is also prepared. This slight increase in the value of n results in an increase in the range of solubility of the polyhydroxyl sulfoxide, i.e. a lowering of the Kraft point to 8° C and an elevation of the cloud point above 100° C in demineralized water, and to 85° C in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights are not much changed, however. They are respectively 10.5 cm, 15.5 cm and 18.5 cm.
EXAMPLE 5
Preparation of a mixture of compounds of the general formula (I) in which R is a radical R'--S--CH 2 --, R' being an oleyl group (the hydrocarbon derivative radical of oleic acid) and n is a mean statistical value of 6.
In a first stage there is prepared oleyl thioglycerol by the addition of 78 g oleyl alcohol (0.3 mole) to 30 g triethylamine in 40 ml benzene. There are then added, at ambient temperature in the course of 75 minutes, 34 g methane sulfochloride.
After a night at 25° C the reaction is total. The triethylamine hydrochloride that has formed is filtered off and the sodium derivative of the thioglycerol is added. The benzene is partly eliminated and 50 ml methanol are added. After 21/2 to 3 hours of stirring at 40°-45° C the level of reaction is 95%.
The thioether that is obtained is salted out with 50 ml water at 70° C and dehydrated at 95° C.
The theoretical amount of glycidol is added at 155° C in the presence of 3 ml of a methanol solution of sodium methylate to have a statistical mean of 6 --CH 2 --CHOH--CH 2 --O-- units per fatty chain. A brown water soluble paste with slight opalescence, perfectly soluble in 40% NaOH, is obtained.
The Kraft point is less than 0° C. The cloud point is above 100° C in demineralized water.

prepared as follows:
To 976 g (4 moles) cetyl alcohol there are added 3.5 ml of an acetic solution of boron fluoride and then drop by drop in the course of 2 hours, 407 g (4.4 moles) epichlorohydrin at 70°-75° C.
The product thus obtained is then washed three times with 700 ml water at 80° C and then distilled at 178°-185° C under a pressure of 0.5 to 1 mm Hg.
To 327 g (0.98 mole) of the chlorated derivative thus obtained there are added 330 g tertiobutyl alcohol, and then at 50° C, 200 g (2 moles) of 40% NaOH. The reaction mixture is then held at 80° C for 30 minutes. There are then added 200 ml water to salt out the cetyl glycidyl ether that is distilled after elimination of the tertiobutyl alcohol at 150°-155° C/0.1 mm.
To obtain the corresponding alpha diol, there is prepared in an intermediate phase the acetic ester, by heating 210 g (0.7 mole) of cetyl glycidyl ether with 46 g (0.77 mole) glacial acetic acid in the presence of 9 to 10 ml triethylamine for 2 to 4 hours.
The acetic ester is then saponified in an alcohol medium and washed three times with boiling water.
To 32 g (0.1 mole) cetyl monoether of the obtained glycerol there are added 1.5 ml sodium methylate in solution in methanol and then in the course of 3 hours, 30 g (0.4 mole) glycidol at 155° C.
The product thus prepared is a clear chestnut colored odorless wax that is perfectly soluble in water and in 40% NaOH.
The Kraft point for a 1% solution is 42° C. The cloud point for a 0.5% solution is above 100° C, for demineralized water as well as for water that contains 10% NaCl.

To 38.5 g of hexadecane 1,2-diol (0.15 mole) there are added 2.8 ml of a solution of sodium methylate in methanol (0.001 equivalent). The resulting mixture is heated under a nitrogen atmosphere to a temperature of 155° C. There are then added, little by little over a period of 1.25 hours, 15 g of glycidol (0.195 epoxide equivalents). There is thus obtained a light colored wax dispersible in water.

The product obtained is a brown wax, soluble in water and in 40% NaOH.

The condensation of glycidol on alcohols in the presence of alkaline catalysts is known especially in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,089,569 and 2,131,142 of Ludwig Orthner and Claus Heuck.
However, the process indicated in these patents does not permit production of products that are sufficiently soluble from simple fatty alcohols or those which present an ether or thioether group. In fact, glycidol largely condenses on itself, forming polyglycerols that are immiscible with lipophilic chain compounds. This is not astonishing since glycidol is well known for its pronounced tendency to polymerize at ordinary temperature in the presence of basic catalysts such as methylamine, pyridine, sodium, potassium or sodium methylate, and this tendency to polymerization has been pointed out, particularly in the Journal of Polymer Science pt.A-1, 4(5), 1253-9 (1966) (English). See also Chemical Abstracts vol. 64, 19781.
On the other hand, it is very surprising to observe that by slow addition of glycidol to long chain alpha diols in the presence of alkaline catalysts at a temperature of 120°-180° C, preferably 140° to 160° C, the reaction medium remains perfectly homogeneous and that hydrosolubility is reached for a relatively low mean degree of polymerization n.
The alpha diols thus appear to constitute a special group in the class of alcohols, whether it is a matter of simple alcohols or of alcohols comprising an ether and/or a thioether group.
Polycondensation of glycidol is effected preferably in an inert atmosphere, e.g. nitrogen. A mixture of compounds is formed that are all of the general formula (I), but for which compounds the number of fixed glycidol molecules can be greater or less than the statistical mean value corresponding to the number of glycidol molecules used per molecule of mercaptan. As a result there is obtained a mixture of compounds with different values for n, in other words, having longer or shorter hydrophilic chains, the whole of the n values being statistically distributed about a mean value corresponding to the number of glycidol molecules per alpha diol molecule.
The alpha diols of formula (II) which are used as starting material can be prepared by conventional processes such as:
hydroxylation of non saturated derivatives; hydrolysis of substituted oxirane cycles; condensation of fatty chain mercaptans on glycidol; condensation of thioglycerol on alkyl halides or on fatty chain alpha olefins; and condensation of glycerol, glycerol isopropylidene and thioglycerol on substituted oxiranes or on alkyl tosylates or mesylates etc.
As basic catalysts there are used alkaline hydroxides or alcoholates, preferably of sodium or potassium, in proportions of 0.5 to 10 mole % and preferably from 4 to 8 mole % with reference to the utilized diols.
The addition of glycidol to the reaction medium is effected slowly. It can last from several minutes to several hours (up to about 4 hours).
In the case of polyhydroxyl thioethers, the corresponding sulfoxides can be prepared according to a known process by addition of hydrogen peroxide, 30-35%, possibly in the presence of 0.5 to 10% by weight of a lower carboxylic acid, e.g. acetic acid, which allows utilization of less glycidol to obtain water solubility.
The invention likewise concerns products obtained according to the above described process. Most are more or less consistent pastes whose properties differ according to the nature of the R radical, of the intermediate ether, thioether or hydroxymethylene group when they are present, and upon the degree of polymerization n.
These are surfactants, and as the case may be, they are foaming agents, softeners, thickeners, peptizers or emulsifiers. Their water solubility is attained with a relatively low degree of polymerization n.
Thus, for example, products for which the lipophilic part is constituted by 11 to 14 carbon atoms are foaming agents which are remarkable in comparison to conventional non-ionic compounds, for substantially lower n values.
With longer hydrocarbon chains there are obtained thickening or emulsifier products. These emulsifiers are especially effective for polar oils and similar products.
The intrinsic nature of the hydrophilic groups of these non-ionic compounds permits, moreover, a very good compatibility with concentrated alkali solutions, which property permits their use in the textile industry, e.g. for mercerizing.
The present invention also relates to compositions intended to be used in cosmetics, especially shampoos, hair dyes, dispersions, emulsions or solutions, these compositions being characterized substantially in that they contain from 0.1 to 80 percent by weight of at least one product of formula (I).
The present invention also relates to dispersions and emulsions, and especially dispersions or oil-in-water emulsions of polar oils.
As examples of polar oils there can be mentioned vegetable oils such as peanut oil, castor oil, sweet almond oil, olive oil and corn oil, esters of glycerol such as glycerol stearates, glycerides of fatty acids such as triglycerides of octanoic and decanoic acids, fatty alcohols such as 2-octyl 1-dodecanol, fatty acids such as stearic acid, alkyl esters of fatty acids such as alkylesters of adipic, myristic and palmitic acid and alkyl esters of fatty acids of lanolin and especially isopropyl myristate or palmitate, ethyl palmitate, butyl stearate, 2-ethyl hexyl palmitate and isopropyl esters of fatty acids of lanolin and solvents such as chlorobenzene, 1,4-dichloro butane, monochloro butane, trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene.
The "oil-in-water" emulsions can include from 2 to 60% oil, 0.1 to 20% emulsifier and 30 to 80% water.
Polyhydroxyl non-ionic compounds of the present invention can also be used to disperse alkaline earth soaps and especially calcium and magnesium soaps.
For each gram of soap to be dispersed, there is utilized 0.02-1 g, preferably 0.1-0.2 g of the compounds of formula (I) in 100 ml solution to 400 ppm calcium chloride.
The test used to show this property is the one proposed by J. Alba Mendoza and C. Gomez Herrera at the fifth international detergents conference in Barcelona in 1968.
The table below shows, for certain compounds of formula (I) whose preparation appears in the examples which follow, the minimum quantity Q (in milligrams) that is necessary to disperse 50 mg sodium oleate in 50 ml water with hardness corresponding to a content of 400 ppm calcium chloride, under the test conditions described by Alba Mendoza.
The lauryl sulfate of sodium which appears in the table was selected as control because it represents the medium type of dispersant for alkaline earth soaps.

The compositions, dispersions and emulsions can be stored in aerosol cans under pressure and containing conventional aerosol propellants such as monochlorotrifluoromethane or dichlorodifluoromethane. They can also include various adjuvants, e.g. other surfactants.
The compatibility of most of the compounds of formula (I) with aqueous solutions of alkaline hydroxides, e.g. with 40% NaOH, is one of their particularly advantageous properties which permits their use in the textile industry, e.g. for mercerizing.
EXAMPLE 1
A mixture of compounds of formula (I) in which R indicates a mixture of alkyl radicals having 9 to 12 carbon atoms, n has a mean statistical value of 3.5, is prepared by polycondensation of the glycidol on a mixture of C 11 -C 14 alpha diols sold by Archer Daniels Midland Co., under the tradename ADOL 114.
To 54 g of the above mentioned diols in a mixture, with a hydroxyl number of 520, there are added 3.75 ml of a solution of sodium methylate in methanol to a concentration of 4.6 meq/g (milliequivalents/gram). The mixture is heated to 155° C, eliminating the methanol, and there are introduced, drop by drop, in the course of 70 minutes, 72 g of glycidol (0.87 equivalents epoxide).
The product thus obtained is a thick brown oil that is perfectly soluble in water and in 40% sodium hydroxide. The Kraft point for a 1% solution is below 10° C. The cloud point for a 0.5% solution is above 100° C, both in demineralized water and in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights measured by use of the Ross-Miles apparatus, for concentrations of 0.05%, 0.2% and 0.5% at 35° C in hard water (corresponding to 340 ppm CaCO 3 ) are respectively 13 cm, 18.5 cm and 20 cm.
When applied as a 5% aqueous solution to the eyes of rabbits, the product is absolutely non-irritating.

To 43 g of the mixture of the mentioned diols with a hydroxyl number of 430, there is added 1 ml of solution of sodium methylate in methanol, to the concentration of 4.6 meq/g and, at 155° C, drop by drop, in the course of 105 minutes, 38 g of glycidol.
The product thus obtained is water soluble and has a very slight opalescence.
The Kraft point is below 0° C.
The cloud point for a 0.5% solution is above 100° C in demineralized water as well as in water that contains 10% NaCl.
EXAMPLE 3
A mixture of compounds of general formula (I) in which R is the radical R'--S--CH 2 --, wherein R' represents a mixture of straight chain and branched C 12 -C 15 alkyl radicals of which about 14% are 2-methyl alkanols sold by the Shell Co. under the name Dobanol 25, n representing a mean statistical value of 2.5, is prepared as follows.
In a first stage, glycerol alkyl thioethers are prepared by reaction of the above mentioned alcohols with methane sulfochloride, with subsequent condensation of the thioglycerol in an alkaline medium.
205 g (1 mole) of Dobanol 25 are mixed with 101 g triethylamine in 250 ml benzene and in the course of 90 minutes there are introduced, at 30°-40° C, 114 g (1 mole) methane sulfochloride. After 1 hour of additional stirring the level of reaction is 97.5%.
After filtration of the triethylamine hydrochloride, there is added a stoichiometric quantity of the sodium derivative of the thioglycerol under nitrogen. The reaction mixture is brought to 100° C with partial elimination of the benzene and with addition of 30 ml of methanol in the course of the reaction to avoid thickening of the reaction mass.
The alkyl thioglycerol is then expanded with 100 ml water, decanted and then vacuum dried to a temperature of 100° C.
To 65 g (0.2 mole) of the product thus obtained, there are added 2 ml of methanol solution of sodium methylate to 4.6 meq/g. The mixture is heated to 155° C and there is then added, dropwise in the course of 90 minutes, 0.5 mole glycidol.
The thioether prepared in this way can be oxidized to sulfoxide with stoichiometric quantities of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of 0.5% acetic acid, yielding a product that is water soluble.
The Kraft point at 1% is 19° C. The cloud point of the product at 0.5% is 80° C in demineralized water and 68° C in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights measured with the Ross-Miles apparatus at 35° C in hard water are respectively 10.5 cm, 16.5 cm and 18 cm for concentrations of 0.05%, 0.2% and 0.5%, respectively.
EXAMPLE 4
A mixture of compounds substantially identical with those of Example 3, with the difference that n represents a mean statistical value of 3 is also prepared. This slight increase in the value of n results in an increase in the range of solubility of the polyhydroxyl sulfoxide, i.e. a lowering of the Kraft point to 8° C and an elevation of the cloud point above 100° C in demineralized water, and to 85° C in water that contains 10% NaCl.
The foam heights are not much changed, however. They are respectively 10.5 cm, 15.5 cm and 18.5 cm.

After a night at 25° C the reaction is total. The triethylamine hydrochloride that has formed is filtered off and the sodium derivative of the thioglycerol is added. The benzene is partly eliminated and 50 ml methanol are added. After 21/2 to 3 hours of stirring at 40°-45° C the level of reaction is 95%.
The thioether that is obtained is salted out with 50 ml water at 70° C and dehydrated at 95° C.
The theoretical amount of glycidol is added at 155° C in the presence of 3 ml of a methanol solution of sodium methylate to have a statistical mean of 6 --CH 2 --CHOH--CH 2 --O-- units per fatty chain. A brown water soluble paste with slight opalescence, perfectly soluble in 40% NaOH, is obtained.
