1、Designation:D555415Standard Test Method forDetermination of the Iodine Value of Fats and Oils1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5554;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A numbe
2、r in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the iodinevalue of fats and oils.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No
3、 other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility
4、of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Significance and Use2.1 This test method is intended for the determination of theiodine value of fats and oils that do not contain conjugateddouble bonds.The iodine value is a measure of the unsaturationof fats and oils and is expressed in terms of the number
5、 ofcentigrams of iodine absorbed per gram of sample.3.Apparatus and Reagents3.1 Glass-Stoppered Bottles or Wide Mouth ErlenmeyerFlasks,500 mL.Wide mouth bottles or flasks are essential ifstirring is done by mechanical means.3.2 Glass-Stoppered Volumetric Flasks,conforming toNIST tolerances2and accur
