LIPIDS
1
INTRODUCTION
Fixed oils ,fats and waxes are also in a broader sense collectively called
LIPIDS. Lipids are large and diverse group of naturally occuring compounds
that are related by their solubility in non-polar organic solvents (chloroform,
acetone, benzene) and are generally insoluble in water.There is a great
structural variety among lipids and comprise of fixed oils, fats and waxes.
Definition:
“ Chemically Lipids can be defined as the esters of long-chains of fatty acids and
alcohols”
Fixed oils: Lipids are the ester of long-chain fatty acids & alcohol or of closely
related derivatives but in fixed oils fatty acid is unsaturated and liquid at room
temperature.
Example
1. Cotton seed oil ,2. Castor oil,3. Linseed oil
2
 Fats
Lipids are the ester of long-chain fatty acids & alcohol or of
closely related derivatives but in fats fatty acid is saturated
and solid at room temperature. .
 Example
1.Wool fat
2. Coconut oil
3
4
 If a substance is liquid at 15.5-16.5ºC it is called a fixed
oil if solid or semisolid at the above temperature, it is
called a fat.
 Waxes
Waxes are esters of long chains of fattyacids and alcohols.
Examples
 spermaceti
 beeswax
 carnuba wax
5
Classification
 The classification is based on the ability to absorb oxygen
from the air.
Fixed oil may be:
1. Drying oil (more ability to absorb oxygen)
2. Semi-drying oil (less ability to absorb oxygen)
3. Non-drying oil (least ability to absorb oxygen)
Oxygen saturates the double bonds to form oxides that may be
polymerize to form hard film.
.

 Drying oil:
When exposed to air, undergo oxidation and form tough and
hard film ,these are usually used in paints and varnishes.s
Example: Linseed oil
 Non-Drying oil:
These oils neither go oxidation, nor form tough or hard film
Example: Olive oil
 Semi-Drying oil:When exposed to air,undergo little bit
oxidation and form tough and thin film
Example: Cottonseed oil
Difference Between Volatile Oil and Fixed Oil
 Volatile oils
 Also called as an essential oil.
 Volatile oil can evaporate when placed under room temperature
 They can be extracted easily by the distillation process
 There is no spot (no permanent stain) left after evaporation
 They are unable to undergo saponification.
 Mixtures of eleoptenes & stearoptenes are termed as volatile oils
 These are optically active.
 primary source is leaves,roots,in petals and bark.
8
 Fixed Oils
 Also called as natural non-volatile oil.
 Fixed oils do not evaporate at room temperature
 They require some specific techniques for extraction.
 Some type of spot (permanent stain) left after evaporation
 Fixed oils can be easily saponified.
 Esters of higher fatty acids & glycerin are called as fixed oils.
 These are optically inactive.
 Their major source is seeds of the plant.

Oil obtained from the ripe seeds
Preparation
 Oil is obtained from castor seeds after removing the seed coats and
