Current Situation of the Study on Oxidative Stability of Biodiesel

As a high quality alternative of fossil diesel, biodiesel is widely concerned at domestic and abroad for its environmentally friendly and renewable. Oxidation stability is one of the important properties of biodiesel, which is also one of the quality criteria in storing and using. The oxidative mechanism and the influencing factors of Oxidation stability, oxidation stabilitys evaluation methods and the application of biodiesel antioxidants were reviewed. Then the direction of oxidation stability is put forward.
