How is Amide KDO made?

Amide KDO is made through a careful reaction process between two important raw materials, namely coconut oil and diethanolamine. During this process, the molecules of the coconut oil and diethanolamine combine to form a new compound called Amide KDO. The result is a liquid substance that can be used as an emulsifier.
