In the field of food technology, the degree of saturation of fats is determined on the basis of the iodine value. Iodine is added to a reaction solution, which adds up to double bonds of the fatty acids contained in the solution. The more iodine has to be added, the more unsaturated fatty acids are contained in the solution. This test is ideally carried out in an iodine number flask which, due to its conical shape, is well suited for mixing several components.
