High-oleic safflower oil. Stability and chemical modification

Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society

Abstract

High-oleic acid safflower oil has been shown to have high-temperature oxidative stability comparable with that of hydrogenated vegetable oils. This stability, added to the ease of handling at low temperatures, should make the oil attractive as a commercial cooking oil. Epoxidation of the new safflower oil led to a product similar to epoxidized olive oil but lighter in color.
