Abstract
This study yielded thermograms for cottonseed oil between 25 and 110-d egrees-C and quantified the variation of the enthalpy and specific hea t versus temperature of this oil and its fractions. The method used di fferential scanning calorimetric analysis. The enthalpy is a linear fu nction of temperature while the specific heat of the cottonseed oil an d its fractions varies very little between 25 and 110-degrees-C. This work showed that the thermodynamic properties of the solid and liquid fractions are similar over the range of temperature covered.
