## Abstract Colour fixed pigments can be detected in refined and bleached oils rather than in crude oils, since in the latter their absorption is masked up by the gossypol pigments. Isohexane is the most desirable hexane isomer. Though it produces darker crude oils, yet refinability and bleachabil

Abstract
The selectivity of hexane isomers towards cottonseed pigments and colour fixed pigments was illustrated by using spectrophotometric analysis of crude, refined and bleached oils, and by refinability and bleachability criteria. Crude cottonseed oil contains besides the alkali‐refinable gossypol and gossypurpurin, several colour fixed pigments. Anhydrogossypol, gossyfulvin, anthocyanins and carotenoids seem to be responsible for the colour‐fixation of the oil. Only carotenoids are eliminated by bleaching. Selectivities of hexane isomers towards colour fixed pigments are in the following order: isohexane < n‐hexane < cyclohexane < benzene < methylcyclopentane.
