Utilization of MATLAB to Simulate Kinetics of Transesterification of Palm Oil-Based Methyl Esters with Trimethylolpropane for Biodegradable Synthetic Lubricant Synthesis
This paper presents the simulation work on kinetic study for the transesterification reaction between palm oil-based methyl ester with trimethylolpropane to produce biodegradable lubricant base oil. The reaction mechanism involves three stepwise reversible series-parallel elementary reactions. New k...
