    Abstract: Preparation of alkoxylation products of formula (R-COO-CHR -CHR z)mY (III) comprises reaction of fatty acid compounds of formula (R-CO)mY (IV) with alkyleneoxides of formula (V), where R = a 3-29C aliphatic group containing 1-3 C=C double bonds and which may be interrupted by 1-3 non-adjacent O atoms; R , R = H, methyl or ethyl; m = 1-3; when m = 1, Y = OR or NR R ; when m = 2, Y = OR O; when m = 3, Y = O-CH2-CH(-O)-CH2-O (sic); R -R = 1-18C alkyl; R = 1-18C alkyl or 2-18C alkylene; z has an average value of 1-100. The reaction takes place in the presence of a catalyst made from polycation-based mixed hydroxides of formula M(II)1-xM(III)x(OH)2Ax/n.mL (I) or LiAl2(OH)6Al/n.mL (II), where M(II) = one or more divalent metals; M(III) = one or more trivalent metals; A = one or more inorganic anions; L = an organic solvent or water; n = the valency of A, or the average valency, if different anions are used; x = 0.1-0.5; and m = 0-10. The mixed hydroxides are modified by additives selected from the following: (a) aromatic or heteroaromatic mono- or polycarboxylic acids or their salts; (b) aliphatic mono- or polycarboxylic acids or their salts with an isocyclic or heterocyclic ring in the side chain; (c) semi esters of dicarboxylic acids or their salts; (d) carboxylic acid anhydrides; (e) aliphatic or aromatic sulphonic acids or their salts; (f) 8-18C alkylsulphates; (g) long chain paraffins; (h) polyetherols or polyetherpolyols; (i) alcohols or phenols; or (k) aliphatic 4-44C dicarboxylic acids or aliphatic 7-34C monocarboxylic acids. The additives may be moulded in solid form with the catalyst, optionally using binders. Also claimed are the products (III).
