Oxidative stability of wax esters by thermogravimetric analysis
Abstract Relative oxidative stabilities of sperm whale oil and eight wax ester preparations were determined by comparing oxygen uptake profiles that had been corrected for ester volatility. Wax esters with unsaturation near the ester bond, even though more volatile, are as stable toward oxidation as...

| Summary: | Abstract Relative oxidative stabilities of sperm whale oil and eight wax ester preparations were determined by comparing oxygen uptake profiles that had been corrected for ester volatility. Wax esters with unsaturation near the ester bond, even though more volatile, are as stable toward oxidation as those with double bonds near the center of each aliphatic chain. |
