- “Ethyl esters from uncommon fatty acids, such as valproic, azelaic, and sorbic acids, were chemically synthesized and identified by gas chromatography or liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry.” 1
Researchers from LQBB – Biomass Chemo/Biotechnology Laboratory, Deparmentt of Pharmacy, UFPR, Federal University of Paraná, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil; have presented an article titled: “Biodiesel from uncommon Fatty acids.”
The researchers from Federal University of Paraná, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil, have have also noted:
- “Some properties were evaluated to determine their potential for use as biofuels or in other commercial applications.”
- “They have remarkable and pleasant odors and, in the case of ethyl ester in valproic acid, display marked resistance to clouding and crystallization.”
