  • What is the difference between supercritical CO2 LLL and lnlo?
  • Soybean oil extracted by supercritical CO2 LLL 23.59 ± 0.08a 20.37 ± 0.11b had higher levels of linoleic and linolenic acids and LnLO 1.57 ± 0.03a 1.16 ± 0.02b LLO 16.82 ± 0.12a 16.84 ± 0.12a lower levels of palmitic and stearic acids compared to LLP 15.32 ± 0.13a 12.41 ± 0.11b the soybean oil extracted by organic solvent.
  • How to obtain cyclic carbonates from epoxidized soybean oil?
  • It is feasible to obtain cyclic carbonates from epoxidized soybean oil on a medium scale (≥ 50 g) by introducing CO 2 into its structure using supercritical CO 2 as reaction media, what was confirmed using different halide-based catalysts. The use of the bifunctional imidazole-iodine catalyst (IOC) substantially shows the best catalytic activity.
  • Is soybean oil a good source of linoleic acid?
  • Soybean oil obtained by supercritical LOS 8.04 ± 0.07a 11.41 ± 0.25b CO2, as a good source of linoleic acid, can be used as OOO 1.88 ± 0.09a 2.08 ± 0.23a useful nutritional supplement.
  • What is the kinetics of ESBO carbonation in supercritical CO2?
  • The kinetics of the ESBO carbonation in supercritical CO 2 is represented as shown in Scheme 4, that is the equimolecular conversion of the epoxide groups (Ep) contained in the triglyceride structure of the oil into five-membered cyclic carbonates (CC), as described in Scheme 1. Scheme 4. Epoxide carbonation general reaction scheme.
  • What are the advantages of working with supercritical carbon dioxide?
  • Advantages of working with supercritical carbon dioxide are observed by looking at the increase of carbonation yield due to mass transfer enhancement when critical point is surpassed (up to 15% step up) along with a significant boost of the pressure influence.
  • What fatty acids are found in soybean oil?
  • The concentrations of myristic, palmitic, linoleic, and linolenic fatty acids of soybean oil were the highest in the first fraction and then decreased, while the concentrations of stearic and oleic acids showed the opposite trend. The solubility of all fatty acids increased with the press...
