Analisis Asam Lemak Bebas (Free Fatty Acid) dan Bilangan Yodium (Iodine Value) pada Refined Bleached Deodorized (RBD) Palm Olein di Balai Laboratorium Bea dan Cukai Kelas II Medan

Abstract

The study analysed Free Fatty Acid and Iodine Value on Refined Bleached Deodorised (RBD) Palm Olein at the Customs and Excise Laboratory Class II Medan. Free Fatty Acid analysis was carried out by alkalimetric titration method and Iodine Value by iodometric titration method. Based on the results of the research conducted obtained Free Fatty Acid levels in RBD Palm Olein A, B and C with average levels are 0.06%, 0.07% and 0.10%. The Iodine Value of RBD Palm Olein A, B and C with average values were 60.39 g I2/100 g, 59.35 g I2/100 g and 59.25 g I2/100 g, respectively. The results of the analysis show that RBD Palm Olein already meets the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). Based on SNI 01-0018-2006 the Free Fatty Acid content of RBD Palm Olein is a maximum of 0.1% and the Iodine Numbers value is at least 56 g I2/100 g.
