Abstract
Summary and Conclusions: Hydrogenation of cottonseed oil occurred at slower rates of reaction in agamma radiation field of Cobalt 60 than comparable nonirradiated runs. Thegamma radiation apparently degraded the triglycerides to form poisons for the nickel catalyst. Free fatty acids and possible carbonyls were probably the poisons produced. The degree of selectivity andcis‐trans isomerization that occurred during hydrogenation were unaffected by thegamma radiation.Keywords
