Abstract

Various highly hydrophobic beech wood lipids were characterized and their quantities measured in hexane extracts by GC, using short and long capillary columns. More polar compounds were also identified in acetone extracts. Triglycerides, steryl esters, sterols, unsaturated fatty acids, as well as various monosaccharide units were determined as possible pollutants of papermaking systems.
