Abstract

Kinematic viscosities at 20C, 40C and at 70C have been measured for methyl oleate, linoleate, linolenate, erucate, and for the saturated fatty acid methyl esters acetate through nonadecanoate. Using a recently developed dynamic viscosity-temperature criterion, log (1.200+log η)=A−S log (1+t/135), the viscosity-temperature behavior of the saturated compounds could be characterized by one single parameter.
