Abstract
Optimization of the analytical conditions for determination of the partially hydrogenated products of castor oil obtained by catalytic hydrogen transfer, using Pd/C, with limonene as hydrogen source, was carried out in this work. The study involved the use of three capillary columns: SPB-1, HP-5 and HP-20 M. The best resolution for the oleic acids isomers, C18:1, was obtained with HP-20 M column while, the best resolution, identification and quantification for the products containing OH and CO were obtained with a HP-5 column after the silylation of the methyl esters.
