Evaluation of the Self‐Heating Tendency of Vegetable Oils by Differential Scanning Calorimetry

Abstract: The evaluation of the self-heating propensity of a vegetable (or animal) oil may be of significant importance during the investigation of a fire. Unfortunately, iodine value and gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis do not lead to meaningful results in this regard. To the contrary, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), which does not measure the chemical composition of the oil, but rather its thermodynamic behavior, produces valuable results. After a thorough literature review on the autooxidation… Show more

“…The disadvantage of these methods is the fact that vegetable oils contain other substances that can infl uence their tendency to self-combustion. According to the publication (Baylon et al, 2008), these substance are natural or synthetic antioxidants that are added especially to edible oils to prevent their oxidation that to make worse their quality.…”

“…The aim of this work is to compare the results obtained by Mackey test with results of iodine number and thermal analysis DTA and TG and to evaluate the applicability of these methods for oils self-combustion assessment. Baylon et al (2008) informs about the use of the thermal analysis for the evaluation of the tendency of oils to self-combustion. Determination of oil composition and the ratio of saturated bonds to unsaturated or determination of iodine number is not considered suffi cient to evaluate the degree of tendency of the oil to selfcombustion.…”

“…1 showed an endothermic peak corresponding to the melting temperature (T m ) at -25.9 , and an exothermic peak at 140.8 . The latter peak is from the formation of hydroporoxides which are primary products of the oxidation of 1 [45,46], caused by its reaction with dissolved oxygen. Samples 3 and 5 did not show the corresponding peak suggesting that their drying properties are lower than that of 1, because of the decrease in the number of C=C bonds due to the bonding with 2.…”
