Abstract
Oxidation of saturated fatty acids ethyl esters: laurate, myristate, palmit ate and stearate was investigated by means of DSC techniques under isotherm al and non-isothermal conditions. The activation energies of isothermal oxi dation were similar to each other (112-123 kJ mol(-1)) and no influence of carbon length on the rate of oxidative decomposition was observed. Results obtained from non-isothermal experiments were similar only for the first st age of oxidation.
