Abstract
A survey of commercial hydrogenation catalysts demonstrated the higher selectivity (SL= 2.4\s-2.7) of certain platinum, palladium and rhodium catalysts for hydrogenating linolenic components in soybean oil. Nickel catalysts generally showed selectivities below SL=2.0 although skeletal nickel achieved higher values.Trans-isomers were in the range 7.8\s-15.4% for the above noble metal catalysts. Nickel catalysts provide a lesser degree of isomerization, 5.2\s-7.4% oftrans-isomers for the most selective catalysts.
