Effect of Oxygen Carrier and Reaction Temperature in Enhancing the Epoxy Ring Stability in the Epoxidation of Palm Kernel Oil
Palm kernel oil (PKO) naturally composed of lauric, myristic and oleic acid. Oleic acid is one of the unsaturated fatty acids that has double bond in its chain. This double bond can be altered into epoxide acid by epoxidation reaction. This study investigated the effect of oxygen carriers and reacti...

| 520 | 3 | |a Palm kernel oil (PKO) naturally composed of lauric, myristic and oleic acid. Oleic acid is one of the unsaturated fatty acids that has double bond in its chain. This double bond can be altered into epoxide acid by epoxidation reaction. This study investigated the effect of oxygen carriers and reaction temperature in epoxidation of palm kernel oil. The result showed that formic acid is the best oxygen carrier with the maximum conversion to oxirane (RCO) of 60.59% under optimum temperature of 55°C. The formation of epoxide from palm kernel oil was confirmed by FTIR analysis which shows the functional groups of epoxide ring at 2922.12 cm-1, 1742.74 cm-1 and 650.4 cm-1. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. | |
