ResumoThe effects of various support materials on the catalytic performance of supported platinum catalysts for the hydrogenation of soybean oil were examined. There was a linear relationship between the catalytic activity and the platinum dispersion of the platinum catalysts. Among the examined catalysts, Pt/BaSO4 was effective for the reduction of both trans fatty acid (TFA) and additional saturated fatty acid (ASFA) levels in partially hydrogenated oils (iodine value (IV) = 70). In addition, the relationship between the TFA levels and the electronegativity of the metal ion in the support material was a volcano function.
