Abstract:
Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is a pure coconut oil contains more saturated fatty acids than
unsaturated fatty acids. Ozonated Oil production can be done through the process of ozonation VCO
on temperature and process time varies. The aim of this research is to study the effect of temperature
(10, 20 and 30 ° C) and time (1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours) VCO ozonation process. The parameters
used to test the quality Cocozone Oil is acid value, peroxide and Iod and color. The results showed
that the temperature and time of ozonation proces big influence on the quality of production cocozone
oil. Cocozone oil production the best quality is obtained at 30 ° C and of 3 hour process with acid
number of 13.46 mg KOH/g of oil, 24.0 mgek peroxide O2/g oil and 9.13 g iodine iodine/g of oil.
