ester interchange: The Concise Chemical and Technical Dictionary (source BECHE) gives "ester interchange" as a synonym of "interesterification" and "transesterification"; however, according to the McGraw-Hill encyclopedia of science and technology (source ENSCI, 1977, p. 27), "ester interchange" is a more specific concept referring to the conversion of one ester into another by reaction with a third ester. 6, record 1, English, - interesterification
