“…After adding water to the dried density container to the designated level, the new weight was noted as W2. W3 was produced when oil was used in place of water, as explained by (Sani et al, 2023). The expression of specific gravity is as follows: Specific gravity = Epoxidation of Oil Goud et al, (2007) outlined a modified method for conducting an epoxidation process in which a 500 ml flask with three necks and a thermometer, separating funnel, and magnetic stirrer was filled with 20 ml of oil.…”

Chemical epoxide modification appears to be one way toward the objective of substituting raw materials for industrial products, and epoxidized vegetable oils offer intriguing options as a raw material substitute for industrial chemicals.. The oil from castor seeds was extracted using a soxhlet extractor and the percentage yield for castor oil was 49 %. The characterization of castor oil yielded the following results: iodine value 88.52g I2/100g, acid value 1.148 mgKOH/g, saponification value 185.8 mgKOH/g, specific gravity 0. 9223 g, peroxide value 156.2 mEq/kg, and pH value 5.7. The oil was epoxidized in the presence of sulphuric acid using 30 % aqueous hydrogen peroxide as an oxygen donor and glacial acetic acid as an oxygen carrier. The fresh oil and the product of the epoxidation reaction were characterized using FTIR analysis, which revealed the disappearance of the carbon-carbon double bond peak at 1746.71 cm-1 and the formation of the epoxide peak at 1743.93 cm-1. Curing time analysis revealed the strength of the synthesized epoxide, with castor epoxide hardening at 25 min and commercial epoxide hardening at 8 min. Castor oil can be utilized as a raw ingredient in a variety of industrial applications, including water treatment, soap production, paint formulation, and laminate production.

“…Viscosity is an important parameter to be considered when selecting an insulating liquid. The dynamic viscosity of the puri ed Yellow Oleander oil and methyl ester oil were measured according to ASTM D445 standard at temperatures (30, 50, and 70 o C) using an RVDV-1 digital viscometer [20,21,30].…”

Vegetable oil has shown a promising behaviour in replacing mineral insulating oil for transformer insulation due to the environmental unfriendliness of mineral oil. However, attention was placed mostly on the edible oil which may eventually lead to food competition. In this work ester from Thevetia Peruviana oil, non-edible vegetable oil was considered as alternative oil for transformer insulation. The functional groups and the ngerprints of the synthesized methyl ester from the Yellow oleander oil were con rmed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectrometry and the fatty acid composition was determined with Gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The viscosity of the methyl ester and mineral oil were obtained to be 4.8 mPas and 9.8 mPas at 30°C. The pour point of methyl ester was obtained to be 1.4°C which could be enhanced by a pour point depressant when considering it for use in a low temperate region. The adequacy of this synthesized oil as an insulating oil was further explored by measuring the dielectric properties. The result revealed that methyl ester has a higher dielectric constant relative to mineral oil and a dielectric loss of 0.0045 at 30°C. The dielectric strength of the oil was analysed using two-parameter Weibull plots. The characteristic breakdown strength of mineral oil and yellow oleander methyl ester was obtained to be 21.9 kV and 23.3 kV respectively. The result obtained from this work is an indication that methyl ester from the non-edible vegetable oil is a promising alternative insulating oil for oil-lled transformer insulation.

“…Research on the degumming process and the type of catalyst on the physiochemical and biodiesel properties in tropical almond (Terminalia catappa) seed oil was conducted (Punwong et al, 2017). The phytochemical and anthelmintic activities of Katapang leaves were similar to standard drugs meanwhile the lowest inhibition of 95.77% was detected from the methanol extract (Sani et al, 2019).…”
