Corn must go through a complex refining process to produce corn oil. This process gives corn oil many unique characteristics, although not all of them are positive. Corn oil is 100% fat, with no protein or carbohydrates. One tablespoon (15 ml) of corn oil contains:calories: 122; fats: 14 g and vitamin E: 13% of the recommended daily intake.
This article represents the dependence of dynamic viscosity on temperature for corn oil. It was studied with the Rheotest VT 550 system at shear rates and increasing temperatures.
