Rheological Behavior of Oxidized Vegetable Oils

Authors: Ioana Stanciu

Abstract:

This article presents the study of the rheological behavior of oxidized and non-oxidized vegetable oils at high temperatures and increasing shear rates. The largest increases in the dynamic viscosity of oxidized oils, in relation to the values that characterize non-oxidized oils, are recorded for soybean oil, followed by corn oil. Oxidized olive and rapeseed oils do not register significant increases in dynamic viscosity compared to non-oxidized oils.
