Kinetic study of palm oil and soya bean oil mixtures/ Zaliha Omar

Palm oil consists mainly of triacylglycerols of palmitic and oleic acids. It is a semisolid at room temperature and can be separated into two fractions, i.e. a solid fraction (stearin) and a liquid fraction (olein) by fractionation process at a controlled temperature. The stearin fraction is a co-pr...
