Constants
Constants are taken with
Odor

Special identity tests
Acid Value
Acid Number
Acidity Index
The number of mg of KOH necessary to NEUTRALIZE the FREE ACID in 1g of oil, fat, wax, resin balsam
Acid Value/Acid Number/Acidity Index
Acid Value Formula
weight of sample
The number of mg of KOH required to SAPONIFY the ESTERS in 1g of fatty or volatile oil, fat, wax, balsam, resin
Ester Value
Application of Ester Value
Analysis of white and Yellow wax - indicate presence of adulterants such as Paraffin
Ex. Stearic Acid - Rosin
Ester Value Formula
EV = (Vb - Vt) x N x 56.11 / wt. sx
Saponification Value
Saponification Number, Koettsdofer Number
The number of mg of KOH to NEUTRALIZE free acids and SAPONIFY esters contained in 1g fat, fatty/volatile Oil, wax, resim, balsam
Saponification Value/Number
Application of Saponification Value
Detection of presence of GLYCERIDES of acids containing less than 16 or >18 carbon atoms
Saponification Value is __________ proportional to the mean MW of the acids present, also indicates ________ of the saple with ___________
Saponification Value is inversely proportional to the mean MW of the acids present, also indicates adulteration of the saple with unsaponifiable matter
Formula for Saponification Value
SV = (Vb - Vt) x N x 56.11

Unsaponifiable Matter
Unsaponifiable matter in Vegetable Oils and fats
Phytosterols
Unsaponifiable matter in Animal Oils and Fats
Cholesterols
