Animal and vegetable fats and oils - Determination of iodine value (ISO 3961:2018)

This document specifies a reference method for the determination of the iodine value (commonly known in the industry as IV) of animal and vegetable fats and oils, hereinafter referred to as fats. Annex B describes a method for the calculation of the IV from fatty acid compositional data. This method is not applicable to fish oils. Furthermore, cold-pressed, crude and unrefined vegetable oils as well as (partially) hydrogenated oils can give different results by the two methods. The calculated IV is affected by impurities and thermal degradation products.
NOTE The method in Annex B is based upon the AOCS Official method Cd 1c-85[10].

Tierische und pflanzliche Fette und Öle - Bestimmung der Iodzahl (ISO 3961:2018)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Bezugsverfahren zur Bestimmung der Iodzahl (im industriellen Bereich gemeinhin bekannt als IZ) in tierischen und pflanzlichen Fetten und Ölen fest, die nachfolgend als Fette bezeichnet werden.
Anhang B beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Berechnung der IZ aus Daten zur Fettsäurezusammensetzung. Dieses Verfahren ist nicht auf Fischöl anwendbar. Außerdem können kaltgepresste, unverarbeitete und nicht raffinierte pflanzliche Öle sowie (teilweise) hydrierte Öle zu unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen bei den zwei Verfahren führen. Die berechnete Iodzahl IZ wird durch Verunreinigungen und durch thermische Abbauprodukte beeinträchtigt.
ANMERKUNG Das Verfahren in Anhang B beruht auf dem offiziellen AOCS-Verfahren Cd 1c-85 [10].

Corps gras d'origines animale et végétale - Détermination de l'indice d'iode (ISO 3961:2018)

Le présent document spécifie une méthode de référence pour la détermination de l'indice d'iode (communément appelé II dans le secteur industriel) des huiles et graisses d'origines animale et végétale, désignées ci-après par le terme corps gras.
L'Annexe B décrit une méthode de calcul de l'II à partir de données relatives à la composition en acides gras. Cette méthode ne s'applique pas aux huiles de poisson. Par ailleurs, les huiles végétales issues de pression à froid, brutes et non raffinées ainsi que les huiles (partiellement) hydrogénées peuvent donner des résultats différents selon les deux méthodes. L'II calculé est affecté par les impuretés et les produits de dégradation thermique.
NOTE       La méthode en Annexe B est fondée sur la méthode officielle Cd 1c-85 de l'AOCS[10].

Rastlinske in živalske maščobe in olja - Ugotavljanje jodnega števila (ISO 3961:2018)

Ta dokument določa referenčno metodo za ugotavljanje jodnega števila (v industriji splošno znan kot IV) v živalskih in rastlinskih maščobah in oljih (v nadaljevanju: »maščobe«). V Dodatku B je opisana metoda za izračun IV iz podatkov o sestavi maščobne kisline. Ta metoda se ne uporablja za ribja olja. Poleg tega lahko metodi pri hladno stiskanih, surovih in nerafiniranih rastlinskih oljih ter (delno) hidrogeniranih oljih podata različne rezultate. Na izračunani IV vplivajo nečistoče in termično razkrajanje.
OPOMBA: Metoda iz dodatka B temelji na uradni metodi AOCS Cd 1c-85[10].

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Animal and vegetable fats and oils — Determination of
iodine value
1 Scope
This document specifies a reference method for the determination of the iodine value (commonly
known in the industry as IV) of animal and vegetable fats and oils, hereinafter referred to as fats.
Annex B describes a method for the calculation of the IV from fatty acid compositional data. This
method is not applicable to fish oils. Furthermore, cold-pressed, crude and unrefined vegetable oils as
well as (partially) hydrogenated oils can give different results by the two methods. The calculated IV is
affected by impurities and thermal degradation products.
[10]
NOTE The method in Annex B is based upon the AOCS Official method Cd 1c-85 .
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https: //www .iso .org/obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at http: //www .electropedia .org/
3.1
iodine value
IV
mass of halogen, expressed as iodine, absorbed by the test portion following the specified procedure,
divided by the mass of the test portion
Note 1 to entry: The IV is expressed as a mass fraction in grams per 100 g of fat.
4 Principle
Dissolution of a test portion in solvent and addition of Wijs reagent. After a specified time, addition of
potassium iodide and water, and titration of the liberated iodine with sodium thiosulfate solution.
NOTE Annex B describes a method for the calculation of the IV from fatty acid compositional data. However,
this is not intended to be a rapid method. The method gives two results from one analytical procedure. The
volumetric method is the reference method.
5 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade.
