Abstract: The invention relates to a coating material for use in a hot-melt coating method, said material containing as the main constituent one or more polyglycerol fatty acid, each obtained by way of a complete or partial esterification of a linear or branched polyglycerol containing two to eight glyceryl units with one or more fatty acids, each containing 6 to 22 carbon atoms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing glycerides of 3-hydroxybutyric acid as well as the products thus obtained and their use.

Abstract: The invention relates to lipophilic transport particles for cosmetic or pharmaceutical active ingredients. The lipophilic transport particles comprise polyglycerol fatty acid ester as a main constituent and, because of the absence of polymorphic transformations, even during long storage, neither have volume changes nor allow the problem of expulsion of the adhering or enclosed active ingredient, due to intense structuring of the crystal lattice and associated compaction, to arise, and therefore the degree of loading with active ingredient and the release profile are stable.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing lipids comprising structural units based on glycerides of 3-hydroxybutyric and/or 3-alkoxybutyric acids as well as the products thus obtained and their use.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing high-grade tricaprylin and to the tricaprylin thus prepared as well as to its respective uses and applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing high-grade fatty acid polyol esters, particularly fatty acid glycerol esters, and to the products thus prepared as well as to their respective uses and applications.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing oxobutanol esters of polymeric carboxylic acids, especially 4-oxo-4-(C1-C5-alkoxy)-2-butanol esters or 4-oxo-4-(hydroxy-C3-C5-alkoxy)-2-butanol esters of polymeric carboxylic acids, as well as the products thus obtained and their use.

Abstract: The invention relates to a polyglycerol fatty acid ester-containing composition which has the following three components, namely: first, polyglycerol fatty acid esters that can be obtained by esterifying polyglycerols, which have 2 to IO glycerol units, with fatty acids with 12 to 22 carbon atoms; second, free poly glycerols, which have 2 to IO glycerol units; and third, polyglycerol fatty acid monoesters, which have 2 to IO glycerol units and fatty acid groups with 12 to 22 carbon atoms. The composition is suitable in particular for use in starting materials for a 3D printing method and can be readily combined with cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical active ingredients or other substances. The invention also relates to methods for producing corresponding starting materials for a likewise described 3D printing method and to molded bodies which can be produced using same.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing polyol esters, especially polyglycerol esters, of optionally acylated 3-hydroxybutyric acid, as well as the products thus obtained and their use.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing carboxylic acid esters of 3-hydroxybutanoates (i.e. carboxylic acid esters of 4-oxo-2-butanols), especially carboxylic acid esters of 4-oxo-4-(C1-C5-alkoxy)-2-butanol or of 4-oxo-4-(hydroxy-C3-C5-alkoxy)-2-butanol, as well as the products thus obtained and their use.
