  2. Fat hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_hydrogenation

    Fat hydrogenation is the process of combining unsaturated fat with hydrogen in order to partially or completely convert it into saturated fat. Typically this hydrogenation is done with liquid vegetable oils resulting in solid or semi-solid fats. Changing the degree of saturation of the fat changes some important physical properties, such as the ...

  3. Vegetable oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetable_oil

    A fully hydrogenated oil, also called a saturated fat, has had all of its double bonds converted into single bonds. If a polyunsaturated oil is left incompletely hydrogenated (not all of the double bonds are reduced to single bonds), then it is a "partially hydrogenated oil" (PHO).

  4. Types of plant oils - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_plant_oils

    In modern vegetable oil production, oils are usually extracted chemically, using a solvent such as hexane. Chemical extraction is cheaper and more efficient than mechanical extraction, at a large scale, leaving only 0.5–0.7% of the oil in the plant solids, as compared to 6–14% for mechanical extraction.

  5. Hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogenation

    In the hydrogenation of vegetable oils and fatty acids, for example, the heat released, about 25 kcal per mole (105 kJ/mol), is sufficient to raise the temperature of the oil by 1.6–1.7 °C per iodine number drop. However, the reaction rate for most hydrogenation reactions is negligible in the absence of catalysts.

  6. Hydrotreated vegetable oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrotreated_vegetable_oil

    The production of hydrotreated vegetable oils is based on introducing hydrogen molecules into the raw fat or oil molecule. This process is associated with the reduction of the carbon compound. When hydrogen is used to react with triglycerides, different types of reactions can occur, and different resultant products are combined. [1]

  9. Fat interesterification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_interesterification

    In particular, unsaturated vegetable oil can be interesterified with a fully hydrogenated version thereof, as in the illustration to the right. This procedure yields less saturated fat without creating the trans fat that would be produced by partial hydrogenation. [ 3 ]
