Abstract
Mono-alkyl acid phosphates having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is straight or branched alkyl having from 1 to about 25 carbon atoms, are prepared by reacting alcohol with P.sub.2 O.sub.5. The process involves suspension of P.sub.2 O.sub.5 in a heel of product comprised of a mixture of mono-alkyl acid phosphate, di-alkyl acid phosphate and free H.sub.3 PO.sub.4. Alcohol is added to the heel last, followed by mixing, and then addition of water. A mixture of mono- and dialkyl acid phosphate is obtained with a mono-content of over about 70 percent by weight.
