Abstract
High erucic cruciferae oils are interesterified with C.sub.16 or higher fatty acids or derivatives thereof. The use of a 1,3-selective lipase leads to the introduction of the fatty acid groups in the 1,3-positions. The liberated erucic acid (derivative) can be hydrogenated; the behenyl acid (or derivative) thus formed can be recirculated to provide at least 50% of the behenyl acid (derivative) needed in the process. The products obtainable by these processes, display good anti-blooming properties.
