Virgin olive oil is a lesser grade of virgin oil, with free acidity of up to 2.0%, and is judged to have a good taste, but may include some sensory defects. Refined olive oil is virgin oil that has been refined using charcoal and other chemical and physical filters, methods which do not alter the glyceridic structure. It has a free acidity ...

The base stock solution was titrated to neutralize an equal quantity of the acid, so without the presence of vegetable oil it would require 40 milliliters of acid to cause a color change, but in the pure oils tested (almond, benne, cottonseed, cod liver oil, linseed oil, and olive oil, only 6 milliliters were required. In accordance with this ...
The more FFA an oil contains, the quicker it will break down and start smoking. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The lower the value of FFA, the higher the smoke point. [ 4 ] However, the FFA content typically represents less than 1% of the total oil and consequently renders smoke point a poor indicator of the capacity of a fat or oil to withstand heat.
The basic principle of iodine value was originally introduced in 1884 by A. V. Hübl as “Jodzahl”.He used iodine alcoholic solution in presence of mercuric chloride (HgCl 2) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4) as fat solubilizer.
Crude oil, or petroleum, and its refined components, collectively termed petrochemicals, are crucial resources in the modern economy. Crude oil originates from ancient fossilized organic materials , such as zooplankton and algae , which geochemical processes convert into oil. [ 8 ]
Winterization of oil is a process that uses a solvent and cold temperatures to separate lipids and other desired oil compounds from waxes.Winterization is a type of fractionation (also known as fractionate crystallization), the general process of separating the triglycerides found in fats and oils, using the difference in their melting points, solubility, and volatility.
