Determining Free and Total Glycerin in B100 Biodiesel Methyl Esters by GC

In the manufacture of biodiesel fuel, triglycerides are split into their monoalkyl ester components via transesterification. The fatty

acid monoalkyl esters can be used as fuel in diesel engines. Amounts of free glycerin and total glycerin indicate the quality of the

conversion of the oil or fat to monoalkyl esters. D6584-10 and DIN EN14105 are test methods for quantitative determination of free

glycerin, total glycerin, and mono-, di-, and triglycerides in biodiesel fuel methyl esters by GC, after silylation of the sample with

N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA).

MXT® Capillary Columns

Ideal for High-Temperature GC Analysis

• Metal tubing won’t become brittle at high

temperatures (430 °C).*

• Exclusive Siltek® layer provides an internal surface

with excellent inertness.

• Can be tightly coiled well under 4.5" without

breaking, even under stress.

*Maximum temperature of finished column may vary by phase.
