Catalytic epoxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in palm stearin via in situ peracetic acids mechanism

Abstract Epoxidized vegetable oils present a viable substitute for polymers derived from petroleum. This research focuses on the impact of a process parameter on the epoxidation of palm stearin when zeolite ZSM-5 is used as a catalyst. This study synthesized peracetic acid as the oxidizing agent by...
