Synthesis of jatropha biolubricant using sodium methoxide as catalyst

Initially, jatropha methyl ester (JME) was synthesized from extracted jatropha crude oil (JCO) and methanol via transesterification, using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as catalyst. JME produced, was later reacted with a type of polyol, trimethylolpropane (TMP) to produce jatropha biolubricant, a jatroph...
