Abstract

4 brands of commercial vanaspati (hydrogenated vegetable fat) were analysed for physical and chemical characteristics. Results for some important parameters were: slip point, 29.0-36.5 degree C; refractive index, 1.4605-1.4621 at 40 degree C; moisture and volatile matter content, 0.04-0.14%; free fatty acid content, 0.09-0.15%; smoke point, 210-226 degree C; penetrometer reading variation of 14-44 mm, and I value 65.5-83.6.
