    Hydrolysis and oxidation are the two primary degradation processes that occur in an oil during cooking. [10] Oxidative stability is how resistant an oil is to reacting with oxygen, breaking down and potentially producing harmful compounds while exposed to continuous heat. Oxidative stability is the best predictor of how an oil behaves during ...
