Abstract

Oils and fats are always prone to turn rancid when stored for long periods. Though oxygen is the main cause of oxidation of oils and fats, other factors such as light, temperature of storage, metallic conta· mination, etc., promote the rancidity. The material of construction of the container has therefore an important effect on the storage life or ails and fats. In OUT country, mild steel tanks are generally used for bulk storage of oils and fats and the consumers usc tinned brass, aluminium, glass or lin containers. The present article deals with studies on storage of vegetable oils and fats in different types of containers.
