The object of the study is the process of sunflower oil oxidation under conditions of increased temperature. Sunflower oil is one of the most common oils and is used in the chemical, food and other industries. The main type of oil spoilage is oxidation, which is accelerated under the influence of radiation, elevated temperatures, long-term storage with oxygen access. Oxidation products prevent the effective use of oil in chemical reactions and technological processes. An important task is to develop and improve methods for increasing the oxidative stability of sunflower oil using antioxidants. The oxidation process of refined deodorized frozen sunflower oil according to DSTU 4492 (CAS Number 8001-21-6) was studied by the method of differential scanning calorimetry. The simultaneous effect of synthetic antioxidants (tert-butylhydroquinone, butylhydroxyanisole, butylhydroxytoluene) in different ratios on the oil induction period at a temperature of 110 °C was determined. The total concentration of the antioxidant mixture in each experiment was 0.02 %. The initial oil induction period is 270.61 min. Rational ratios of antioxidants were determined: tert-butylhydroquinone: butylhydroxyanisole: butylhydroxytoluene (16.67:66.67:16.67) %; tert-butylhydroquinone: butylhydroxyanisole: butylhydroxytoluene (33.33:33.33:33.33) %. The corresponding oil induction periods were 382.56 min. and 385.87 min. The effect of citric acid (0.005 %) and defoamer (polydimethylsiloxane, 0.0002 %)) on the induction period of oil with the addition of antioxidant mixtures was determined. The corresponding oil induction periods were 420.78 min. and 430.25 min. The results of the study make it possible to increase the oxidative stability of sunflower oil, which will contribute to the effective use of oil in various areas
