Abstract
This study investigates the use of the p-toluene sulphonic acid as catalyst and a microwave heating system for synthesizing gallic acid esters from gallic acid and acohols, which include methyl-3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate, ethyl gallate, propyl gallate, isopropyl gallate, n-butyl gallate, isobutyl gallate and tertbutyl gallate. The gallic acid esters are analyzed by the FTIR. The antioxidant effect to biodiesel and the raw oils are studied with the dosage of 1000 ppm each and it shows better oxidation stability. With the increase of the antioxidants isopropyl gallate and isobutyl gallate, the induction period of the biodiesel are longer. When 250 ppm of isopropyl gallate and 600 ppm of isobutyl gallate are added, the oxidation stability of biodiesel can meet Chinese national standards and European standards.
