throughput at high efficiencies is small. The efficiency of the unpacked columns drops off rapidly as the rate of boiling increases. 2. The single-turn, So. 26 wire helices ( 1 ) result in high efficiency (eight plates) even a t relatively high rates of boiling. This type of packing gives higher efficiencies than any other studied. 3. The continuous spiral packing used in the 6-mm. column is not as efficient as the single-turn helices. At low rates of boiling the unpacked column is a little more efficient than the spiral packed. 4. rlt the same rate of boiling, the empty 3-mm. column is no more efficient than the 6-mm. column. The 3-mm. column, however, does give higher efficiencies a t very low rates of boiling-i. e., conditions under which the larger column cannot be satisfactorily operated. 5. The effect of insulation is as follows: At high rates of boiling the effectiveness of the insulation seems to make but little difference in efficiency. At somewhat lower rates of boiling the better insulated column has the lower efficiency. However, the better insulated columns can be operated at velocities below those possible with poorly insulated columns, and under such conditions the better insulated columns have greatest efficiency, 6. The results with qpiral packing in the 3-mm. column re-

quire further investigation because of the unusual way in which efficiency varies with rate of boiling.

Experience in operating the columns leads t'o the following conclusions : 1. Operation of the columns becomes more and more dificult as the rate of boiling becomes very low because the slightest variation in the insulation of the column or heat input to the pot destroys the equilibrium in the column. For successful operation at very low rates of boiling the columns should be insulated almost as well as a calorimeter. Under such conditions efficiencies as high as thirty plates per foot seem possible. 2 . The 3-mm. column is so difficult to operate smoothly that its further use is probably undesirable unless further work with packed rolumns shows substantial advantages over the 6-mm. column.

ANIMAL AND VEGETABLE OILS Viscosity-Temperature Characteristics Viscosities in centistokes at 100" and 210" F. were determined for some thirty animal and vegetable oils of various types. Other properties of the samples are listed. In general these products show high viscosity indices and low gravity indices. LTHOGGH >tattered data expressed in various units at many different temperatures exist for the yiscosities of animal and vegetable oils, apparently no coinparatiye collection has been made. I n the present investigation, viscosities at 100" and 210" F. (37.78" and 98.89' C.) have been found in fundamental units for about thirty common animal and vegetable oils possessing other physical and chemical characteristics as listed. From the combined data, viscosity indices, gravity indices, and viscosity-gravity constants were found. The oils are classified in groups according to the scheme used by Mitchell (9).

Oil Specimens The oils used were obtained from several sources and are believed t o be true samples. The olive oil, the second castor oil, and t h e second lard oil obtained from the Department of' Agricultural and Biological Chemistry had been tested for the addition of foreign substances. Although the other samples were not so examined, specimens from different sources were found in each case to be remarkably uniform in their properties. The last three rosin oils listed are certain cuts from the fractionation of the commercial rosin oil whose properties are not included in this report.

Methods and Apparatus Seutralization and saponification numbers were obtained by methods much the same as the A. S. T. hl. procedures (1). Specific gravities at 20" C. (68" F.) relative t o water at 4" C. 39.2' F.) were found b y pycnometers; division of these values by the factor 0.999 gave specific gravity a t 60" F. 15.6" C.) This factor was derived from the experimental Yalues shown in Table I and represents the ratio between -pecific gravity a t 68" and a t 60" F. for eight oils of different classes. The corresponding value for petroleum oils is 0.9968 '3'). Refractive indices a t 68", loo', and 130" F. (20', 37.78', .tnd 54.44' C.) were evaluated by an Abb6 refractometer. TABLE

Kinematic viscosities at 100" and 210" F. (37.78" and 98.89" C.) in centistokes were determined by the use of modified Ostwald pipets (4, 11). Viscosity-temperature change is expressed in terms of the kinematic viscosity index #$), The Saybolt viscosities were obtained from a conversion table (8). From the Saybolt viscosity at 100" F. and the specific gravity a t 60" F., the gravity index ( 7 ) may be found ilr +he viscosity-gravity constant (6) calculated.

It has long been known that fixed oils possess flat 11 temperature curves. Kinematic viscosity indice- ( culated as a measure of this property vary irorn 86 for castoi oil to 193 for a sample of sperm oil. Excepting the rosin oils from consideration, the products of 20 to 50 centistokes at 100" F exhibit a roughly linear relation between viscosity and viscosity index, the more viscous oils showing t h e lower indiceb. For mineral oils refined by conventional inethocit t h e gravity index ( 7 ) is approximately the same as the viscosity index. This is far from the case for fixed oils, the viscosity index being 100 to 200 points higher. This circuinstance may be taken as a manifestation of the very great differences in chemical structure of these two classes of oil. The effect of a complex ring structure is evidenced by the viscosity index of -169 for a commercial rosin oil and of -4 t o -183 for rosin oil cuts of increasing viscosity. Viscosity-temperature and viscosity-gravitx relations should be useful supplements to the other meam used for the identification of fixed oils. However, in cases where other physical properties of oils are nearly identical, the

Viscosities may be also; for exainple, this is true of olive oil and lard oil (dainple l ) ,for the differentiation of which special tests have been tlerisecl (10).
