Abstract To precisely regulate the crystallization of lipids, an in‐depth understanding correlation between structures promoters and their functionalities is crucial. The effects 1,3‐dipalmitoyl‐2‐behenoyl‐glycerol (PBP) 1,3‐dipalmitoyl‐2‐stearoyl‐glycerol (PSP) on behavior palm oil, stearin, a cocoa butter replacer were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarized light microsc...

The cold filter plugging point (CFPP) has been widely used to evaluate the low-temperature operability of neat biodiesel and biodiesel–petrodiesel blends in many European Asian countries. In this study, six kinds palm biodiesels (palm oil, stearin, olein methyl esters undistilled distilled forms) two Taiwanese major petrodiesels (CPC FPCC) were adopted examine their CFPP from 100 vol% (B100) di...

Heterogeneous transesterification of vegetable oils offers an environmentally more attractive option for biodiesel production compared with the conventional homogeneous processes. Thus, double metallic methoxide catalyst was developed in the present study, aiming to improve the transesterification of low-cost palm stearin (PS) and reduce waste generation. The physicochemical properties of the s...
