This research aimed to determine the effect of adding sulfuric acid to the synthesis of sulfated oil from palm oil to the chemical properties of the resulting sulfated oil. The research method is the synthesis of sulfated oil from bulk palm oil, with a 98% H 2 SO 4 emulsifier technically. The addition of H 2 SO 4 varied with successive number of 10; 12.5; 15; 17.5; 20; 22.5 and 25% with sulphation time for 3 (three) hours. The resulting sulfated oil was chemically tested including water content, oil content, total alkalinity, saponification number, ash content, and SO 3 levels are bound. The results showed that there was an effect of adding H 2 SO 4 to the synthesis of oil sulfated. The addition of 25% H 2 SO 4 is the best compared to other samples. Sulfated oil obtained by its solubility in water is more stable than other samples. The chemical properties of the sulfur oil produced have a water content of 6.47%; oil content of 81.28%; total alkalinity of 0.25%; and ash content of 2.77%; meet the requirements IS: 6357-1971, specifications of sulfated oil for leather.
