Abstract
Polyvinyl alcohol fatty acid esters, notably unsaturated acid esters, comprise a new class of edible fat replacements. Polyvinyl oleate, prepared either by direct esterfication of low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol with oleic acid, oleic anhydride or oleyl chloride, by the transesterification between low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol and methyl oleate, or by the interesterification between low molecular weight polyvinyl acetate and methyl oleate, is a preferred edible fat replacement.
