Abstract

The thermal oxidation of a biodiesel prepared from used vegetable oil was investigated using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Spectral changes were observed in the hydroxyl, carbonyl, and cis/trans double bond regions for the control and Vitamin E–added samples. These spectral changes...
