1298.    HAASE.  [Analysis of the Fatty Acids for Soaps, From Tief-Temperatur Hydrierung Paraffin.]  FIAT Reel R-19, frames 6668-6685, Aug. 8, 1940; PB 73,594; TOM Reel 261.

       Describes extensive analysis of fatty acids obtained from Tief Temperatur Hydrierung paraffin by oxidation.  Investigation consists of the following steps:  Conversion of the mixed acids into methyl esters; separation of the hydroxy-, keto-, and dicarboxylic esters and their derivatives by adsorption on silica gel; hydrogenation of the olefin carboxylic esters to saturated esters; preliminary and final fractionation of the methyl esters and their saponification.  The results show that the fatty acid mixtures consists of 15.4% constituents adsorbable on silica gel, 8.1% unsaturated fatty acids, 75.5% straight-chain fatty acids, and 1% branched-chain acids.  The C number ranges C9-C25, includes 2 tables and 9 graphs.
