Four types of herbs which are easy to find in Malaysia consist of aleurites moluccana, cinnamon zeylinicum, myristica fragrans, and piper nigrum were selected as sample in this research. Analysis has been done for the percentage yield of oil and functional group of oil by using the FTIR spectroscopy. From the analysis aleurites moluccana given the highest percentage yield about 67.02% and cinnamon zeylinicum show the lowest percentage yield 32.99%. Comparison of commodity oil (palm oil and maize oil) with the specialty oil has been done and the result shows that aleurites moluccana oil is almost the same Infra-Red spectrum with palm oil and maize oil. The development for this type of oil must be considered because it has a good potential to commercialize. The market value for this type of oil is now increasing in its application and can substitute the oil from animal fats. -Author specialized Mohd Afiq Mohd Salleh Project paper (Bachelor of Chemical Engineering) --- Universiti Malaysia Pahang - 2008 Extraction (Chemistry) Essences and essential oils THE0004039(Local) UMP 080826 20251114204451.0 vtls000031205
