Abstract

The grease of Vietnamese Basa fish comprises approximately 25% of fish weight. Solid composition is about 14.83% by weight of commercial’ fish grease 70.06% of which are saturated fatty acid (under 16 carbon atoms). It is suitable for using as material in synthesizing Alkyl Ketene Dimer (AKD) that is used in paper making. The aim of this paper is to study the processing of making AKD from basa fish grease and the factors affecting this processing.
