A Thermoanalytic and Kinetic Study of Sunflower Oil
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, thermoanalytic methods have frequently been used in the characterization of oils and fats. In this work, thermoanalytic and kinetic parameters of sunflower oils, with and without antioxidants, were evaluated using thermogravimetry / derivative thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. The thermogravimetric profiles for the sunflower oils had similar characteristics, showing a level stretch indicative of stability up to about 200C. Thermal decomposition of these oils occurred in three stages, related to the decomposition of polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids, respectively. DSC curves show two events that characterize the polymerization and decomposition of triglycerides. The heat capacities of the sunflower oils, obtained by DSC, showed a good correlation and were dependent on the composition of fatty acids. The kinetic parameters, obtained by non isothermal thermogravimetry by the Coats and Redfern, Madhusudanan, Horowitz and Metzger and Van Krevelen methods, were dependent on the antioxidant used. Increasing the frying time produced a decrease in the onset of thermal decomposition temperature in the sunflower oils analyzed.

Kinetics study of biodiesel synthesis from sunflower oil using Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 nanocatalyst
In the present research work, the kinetics of sunflower oil transesterification reaction in the presence of Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 nanocatalyst which prepared using incipient wetness impregnation method was investigated. The 10wt.%Ba-Sr/ZSM-5 (Sr/Ba=3/2) nanocatalyst was calcined at 600 °C for 6 h with a heating rate of 3 ºC/min. The experimental conditions were the methanol/oil 9/1molar ratio, reaction t...

متن کاملShelf stability of lutein from marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) flowers in vegetable oils
The stability of lutein in sunflower and rice bran oils was investigated in the temperature range 25–40 °C. Experiments were made using a standardized plant extract at 5% by weight of lutein derived from the flowers of Tagetes erecta L. Samples of the pigment in oil were incubated at each temperature for up to 10 days and the time course of degradation was monitored. A kinetic analysis of the d...
