The dertermination of rapeseed oil content in compound rape oils (IM-DER-037)

The determination of the rapeseed oil content in a compounded rapeseed lubricant, such as CR65, using saponification value measurement is a time-consuming analytical technique. It was anticipated that a quick, simple, instrumental method could be developed using Infrared spectroscopy to compare samples against prepared standards. Rapeseed oil consists largely of...
