Optimization of the operating parameters for the extractive synthesis of biolubricant from sesame seed oil via response surface methodology

This study examined the optimization of the transesterification reaction of sesame methyl esters (SMEs) with trimethylolpropane (TMP) to synthesise sesame biolubricant (SBL). Response surface methodology (RSM) using central composite design (CCD) was employed for the experimental design. Effects of...
