Original Source: Biodiesel production from tung (Vernicia montana) oil and its blending properties in different fatty acid compositions.
The feasibility of biodiesel production from tung (Vernicia montana) oil was investigated with respect to the transesterification yield and biodiesel properties. Tung oil has poor oxidation stability due to the instability of the conjugated carbon-carbon double bonds in the alpha-elaeostearic acid. The methyl elaeostearate is the predominant component (82.2wt.%) of the tung oil biodiesel. The tung oil biodiesel has the low cold filter plugging point of -11 degrees C, ester content of 94.9wt.%, and oxidation...
