Oxidation Stability Tester:

RapidOxy 100

The unique oxidation stability tester accelerates the oxidation process by using increased temperature and an excess of pure oxygen.

RapidOxy 100 is highly suitable for oxidation stability determination of vegetable oils and animal fats (e.g. margarine, butter, edible oils), food (such as mayonnaise, sauce, cream, cheese, biscuits), cosmetics (lip balm, hand cream, body lotion, etc.), and flavors and fragrances.

Key Features
