TLDR
In this article, the x-ray structure analysis of a single crystal of the β-@#@ form of 2-11-bromoundecanoyl-l, 1- dicaprin has revealed an arrangement of carbon atom chains within a molecular layer that is identical to that found in the β -form monoacid triglycerides.
Abstract
The x-ray structure analysis of a single crystal of the β-@#@ form of 2-11-bromoundecanoyl-l, 1- dicaprin has revealed an arrangement of carbon atom chains within a molecular layer that is identical to that found in the β-form monoacid triglycerides. However the packing of the molec-ular layers within the crystal lattice is sub-stantially different because of the unequal fatty acid chain-lengths in the symmetrical diacid triglyceride of this investigation.

Molecular Arrangement in Glycerides

TL;DR: In this article, the main features of glyceride crystallization are discussed on the basis of earlier known crystal structures and new results, particularly on their structure in the liquid state, are presented, which enables to predict whether a particular crystal form of a mixed triglyceride exists.

Identifying key structural indicators of mechanical strength in networks of fat crystals

TL;DR: In this paper, a model developed to explain mechanical properties of these materials taking into account all levels of structure is proposed, indicating that this material being structured as a network of weakly-attractive polycrystalline particles was closely related to the polymorphism of the solid state.

Polymorphism and intersolubility of some palmitic, stearic and oleic triglycerides: PPP, PSP and POP

TL;DR: In this article, the polymorphism and intersolubility of a series of palmitic, stearic and oleic triglycerides have been investigated in order to understand the thermal properties of fractions of natural fats.

Advances in our understanding of the structure and functionality of edible fats and fat mimetics

TL;DR: Recent advances in the understanding of the nano and mesoscale structure of fats, responsible for their physical functionality and contrast it to that of fat mimetics are discussed.

Crystal Structure of β-Tricaprin

TL;DR: In spite of the interest in the part played by the triglycerides in biological systems, no complete single crystal structural studies have appeared except that of Vand and Bell1, who reported the chain structure and packing in β-trilaurin this article.
