Studies of the oxygen bomb method for determining shortening stabilities

  • Published:
Journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society

Abstract

The Oxygen Bomb Method as evolved by the studies presented in this paper gives production and quality control laboratories a procedure by which to measure a fifty-hour shortening in one hour and forty-five minutes. The OBM is twice as precise as in the Active Oxygen Method as shown by the comparison of their two sigma error.
