  2. Coconut oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_oil

    RBD coconut oil can be processed further into partially or fully hydrogenated oil to increase its melting point. Since virgin and RBD coconut oils melt at 24 °C (75 °F), foods containing coconut oil tend to melt in warm climates. A higher melting point is desirable in these warm climates, so the oil is hydrogenated.

  4. Edible oil refining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edible_oil_refining

    Edible oil refining is a set of processes or treatments necessary to turn vegetable raw oil into edible oil.. Raw vegetable oil, obtained from seeds by pressing, solvent extraction, contains free fatty acids and other components such as phospholipids, waxes, peroxides, aldehydes, and ketones, which contribute to undesirable flavor, odor, and appearance; [1] for these reasons, all the oil has ...

  6. Cooking oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_oil

    Cooking oil (also known as edible oil) is a plant or animal liquid fat used in frying, baking, and other types of cooking. Oil allows higher cooking temperatures than water, making cooking faster and more flavorful, while likewise distributing heat, reducing burning and uneven cooking. It sometimes imparts its own flavor.

  8. Peroxide value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide_value

    The peroxide value is defined as the amount of peroxide oxygen per 1 kilogram of fat or oil. Traditionally this was expressed in units of milliequivalents, although in SI units the appropriate option would be in millimoles per kilogram (N.B. 1 milliequivalents = 0.5 millimole; because 1 mEq of O2 =1 mmol/2 of O2 =0.5 mmol of O2, where 2 is valence).

  9. Winterization of oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterization_of_oil

    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.
