The epoxidation reaction was carried out at 60 °C using peroxyacetic acid generated <em>in situ</em> and sulphuric acid as catalyst. A conversion of 60 % of double bonds was reached after 3 hours of reaction. However, only one hour was needed to get standard requirements and to avoid the epoxide ring opening side reaction that leads to hydroxyl groups. Besides, it was also observed that the formation of hydroxyl groups increases the kinematic viscosity of the biodiesel, being deleterious for the biodiesel properties. </p> </div> <p> </p> </p></abstract><publication_date><month>05</month><day>29</day><year>2014</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>1076</first_page><last_page>1084</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">gnest_01355</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.001355</doi><timestamp>1714517881</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/gnest_01355</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
