The outer shells of linden seeds collected from Malatya region in August 2018 were cleaned before extraction. Hexane, ethyl alcohol and acetone were used as solvents. Elemental analysis, XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), ash determination and saponification number determinations were performed for characterization processes. After the analysis, the oil yield with ethyl alcohol was determined as 33% by weight with acetone, 28.65% for hexane and 28% for acetone. In linden seed fatty acid, it was determined as oleic acid: 27.442 for acetone, 30.852 for hexane, 10.955 for acetone by weight, 11.929 for hexane, linoleic acid: 51.188 for acetone, 44.145 for hexane. The soap number value was determined as 232.48 mg KOH/g for ethyl alcohol, 176.72 mgKOH/g for hexane and 246.94 mg KOH/g oil for acetone. While the ash determination value was 5.755% for the seed, the shell ash was determined as 2.1% differently.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle28385787010.53433/yyufbed.11771601216586
