Abstract: | A single step process has been developed on a pilot plant scale (15 kg/batch) for simultaneous hydrogenation and dehydration
of castor oil using nickel catalyst and attapulgite to yield solid fats having a hydroxyl value of 7–33 and an iodine value
of 41–56. The polymer and keto fatty acid contents in the products were up to 2% and 3.2%, respectively. The product can be
used in the manufacture of soap as the hard fat component and in textile sizing. |
