Abstract
A study has been made of the relationships governing the accumulation of acids, ester and carbonyl compounds and total hydroperoxides (ROOH) in the industrial process of oxidation of paraffin to synthetic fatty acids, and also the kinetics of decomposition of paraffin oxidate ROO H in an inert atmosphere. It is shown that the oxidation of technical- grade paraffin is characterized by the formation of several forms of h ydroperoxide.
