Determination of melting point of animal fats
1 Scope
This document describes the determination of the melting point of animal fats solidified at room temperature using capillary visual inspection and a melting point apparatus.
This document applies to the determination of the melting point of animal fats that solidify at room temperature.
2 Normative references
The contents of the following documents, through normative references within the text, constitute essential provisions of this document. Dated citations are not included.
For references to documents, only the version corresponding to that date applies to this document; for undated references, the latest version (including all amendments) applies.

GB/T 6682 Specifications and test methods for water used in analytical laboratories
GB/T 15687 Preparation of animal and vegetable oil samples
3 Terms and Definitions
This document does not contain any terms or definitions that need to be defined.
4.Visual inspection of capillary tubes
4.1 Principle
Under environmental conditions not exceeding 25°C, a capillary tube containing a column of solidified fat is immersed in water to a specified depth and subjected to a specified flow rate.
Increase the temperature and observe the temperature at which the fat column in the capillary begins to rise; this temperature is the melting point.
4.2 Reagents and Materials
Unless otherwise specified, all reagents used are chemically pure, and the test water shall meet the requirements for Grade III water in GB/T 6682.
4.2.1 Reagents
Acetone (CH3COCH3). 13.5 mol/L.
4.2.2 Reagent Preparation
4.2.2.1 Chromic acid cleaning solution (0.928 mol/L). Dissolve 20 g of potassium dichromate in 40 mL of distilled water and heat to about 60 °C to dissolve it.
While stirring, slowly add 400 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid. Mix well and allow to cool before transferring to a washing bottle for later use.
4.2.2.2 Preparation of ice-salt water. Weigh 15g of sodium chloride into a 250mL beaker, add 100mL of distilled water, and stir well. Add a small amount of...
Dry ice blocks are used to maintain the temperature of the ice-salt water at -12℃ to -10℃.
4.2.3 Materials
Ice pack. approximately 8cm x 10cm.
