Smoke point: reaching this temperature the oil support a thermal dissociation (and degradation) process: formation of glycerol and fatty acids, acrolein, etc. A great smoke point is a quality for an edible oil. Flash point: temperature of combustion; the flash point is of course greater than the smoke point.

Will peanut oil burn?

The flash point is the temperature at which a liquid gives off an ignitable vapor. It is NOT the smoke point, nor the ignition point. Unrefined peanut oil has a smoke point (temperature at which it begins to break down, give off smoke) of 320 degrees Fahrenheit, while refined peanut oil has a smoke point of 448 degrees Fahrenheit. The ignition point of both oils is 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and the flash point 600 degrees Fahrenheit.

Will the smoke point rise on canola oil if mixed with peanut oil?

That depends on the type of canola oil and the type of peanut oil. If the canola is refined and the peanut is unrefined, the smoke point will go down. If they're both refined, the smoke point will go up, but not by very much.

What is the importance of flash point of oil?

The flash point of oil is important as it indicates the temperature at which oil can ignite when exposed to a flame or heat source. It is a critical safety measure to prevent fires and explosions in handling, storing, and transporting oil. Knowing the flash point helps determine the appropriate handling and storage procedures to minimize fire hazards.


What is flash point of crude oil?

The flash point of crude oil can vary depending on its composition, but typically ranges from around 35°C to 150°C. Flash point is the temperature at which a volatile substance can ignite when exposed to an ignition source. It is an important safety consideration for handling and transporting crude oil.
