resented a decrease of 82.44% and 40.63%, respectively. This abrupt reduction in oil viscosity vs increased temperature is characteristic of other vegetable oils. For low temperature values, there was a clear difference among
viscosity values when compared to higher temperatures. The reduction in viscosity as temperature increases is attributed to the increase in the intermolecular distances caused by heating. Therefore, the increased distance reduces the forces of attraction between the molecules and increases fluidity [41–44]. The value of kinematic viscosity set by the ANP for biodiesel ranges from 3.00 to 6.00 mm2s-1. Therefore, the ethyl ester from macauba pulp oil reaches the ANP specification, in
