β¦ Synopsis
A new type of low erucic acid rapeseed oil containing high amount (1 1 "/o) of palmitic acid (C16-LOBRA) was studied, both in labscale and in pilotplant equipment. The polymorphic behaviour of fat blends and margarine emulsions consisting of (216-LOBRA, LOBRA and soybean oil and their hydrogenated fats were examined. The results clearly show the potential in the hydrogenated C16-LOBRA. The time before the stable p-form is developed is much longer for the hydrogenated Cis-LOBRA compared with the hydrogenated LOBRA and in fact similartoahydrogenated soybeanoil.
The hydrogenated Cis-LOBRA is therefore well suited to be used in e.g. margarine systems.
