When the temperature drops to about less than 15 or 10 C, the ester become solid waxy ( this might come from some of the stearin which was not converted to ester ?) but it become clear liquid again when the temperature increases. Do you have any idea or suggestion to solve this problem because we use this ester to run the locomotive in South of Thailand and this problem occured when the ambient temperature droped especially during the night.
