This work presents a synthesis of palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD)-based esters to produce biolubricant oils through the esterification reaction between saturated palm fatty acid distillate (SFA-PFAD) with different types of high degree polyhydric alcs. such as trimethylolpropane (TMP), di-trimethylolpropane (Di-TMP), pentaerythritol (PE), and di-pentaerythritol (Di-PE) in the presence of sulfuric acid as catalyst. The chem. structures of synthesized SFA PFAD-based esters were characterized and confirmed by using FTIR, NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopies and GC-FID chromatog. The FTIR spectra of SFA PFAD-based ester products clearly showed the peaks of C=O and C-O of ester group at 1732-1740 cm-1 and at 1239-1162 cm-1, resp. Furthermore, 1H NMR spectra confirmed the proton chem. shift (-CH2-O-) of the ester group at 3.80-4.01 ppm. The 13C NMR spectra confirmed the carbon chem. shifts of ester carbonyl signals at 171.09-174.07 ppm and secondary carbons (CH2-C = O) at 40.57-42.44 ppm. The results showed that the optimum conditions for the esterification of SFA-TMP was obtained at acid catalysts of 5%, esterification time and temperature of 6 h and 150 掳C, resp. The results have shown the ester products yields have been significantly increased up to 93% with selectivity of 99% SFA-TMP tri-ester after the optimization process by using D-optimal design. The results for lubrication properties have shown that the SFA PFAD-based esters have low-temperature properties with pour points value in the range of 18-35 掳C, flash point (270-310 掳C), onset oxidative stability temperature (251-322 掳C) and viscosity indexes (115-131), resp. The results showed that the presence of many esters functional groups in the mol. structure of SFA PFAD-based esters provides a pos. impact on the lubrication properties. Overall, the results indicated that the SFA PFAD-based esters can be used as biolubricant base oils with pour point depressants.
