Preparation of stearyl stearate: Add a certain amount of stearic acid, octadecanol and solid acid catalyst to a 100mL three-necked flask equipped with an electric stirrer, a thermometer and a reflux condenser tube for a heating reflux reaction. At the end of the reaction, it was filtered while hot, transferred to a small beaker, and the product was washed with 80% aqueous ethanol solution for three times, solidified and dried, and then vacuum dried to obtain a white waxy solid. The yield was calculated by weighing.
