In this study, molecularly imprinted polymer-oleic acid (MIPOA) was synthesized using oleic acid (OA) as the template via bulk polymerization. The objective of this study was to characterize the MIPOA as an adsorbent for the isolation of OA from palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) waste, using thermog...
