Question from Mr. Rhiby Ainur Basit Hariyanto

In your research, you do a synthesis of lubricity enhancer through
transesterification of Palm Oil and ethylene glycol using Potassium Carbonate as a
catalyst right? Could you explain why you choose this catalyst than the other
common base catalyst such as KOH and NaOH?

Thank you for your question, Mr. Rhiby..
I choose the potasium carbonate as a base catalyst because potasium carbonate (K2CO3) as base catalyst can reduce soap formation and also gives the high yields of fatty acid esters. Besides, this catalyst can avoid the reaction from impurity, so the purification of products becomes easier.
Thank you, hopefully you always fine there, stay healthy..
