1.
The effect of fractional composition of fatty acids has been studied. It has been shown that on oxidation of paraffins boiling at 300–400°, 365–435° and 365–465°C, the yield of C10-C20 acids in the acid mixture is equal respectively to 73.5, 63.7 and 59.2% and the yield of still residue is 5.5, 16.2 and 24.7%, respectively. The average number of carbon atoms in the molecule of the fatty acids is approximately one-half the average number of carbon atoms in the paraffin molecules which were taken for oxidation.

The results of oxidation of a mixture of solid and liquid petroleum paraffins (7:3) which were previously obtained in the All-Union Scientific Research Institute for Synthetic Fats pilot plant have been confirmed by industrial experiments.
