This diploma thesis is focused on issues concerning the stability of selected vegetable oils which are used in cosmetic industry. The stability of eight oils without additives were determined by a differential scanning calorimeter. In the first phase, the temperatures of oil degradation were determined for different rates of heating, i.e. nonisothermal stabilities. They were consequetly used to calculate isothermal stabilities alias induction periods. The calculation of induction periods was completed by using integral isoconversional methods, which applied four different temperature functions. One of the temperature functions corresponded to Arrhenius equation while the others to non-Arrhenius functions. The confrontation of induction periods under standart conditions showed that an optimal temperature function to calculate oil stabilities is one of the non-Arrhenius functions in exponential form. We can state that all oils are degraded by similar, if not the same, mechanism. The specified stabilities, in periods of months, have proved the importance of using stabilizers and other additives in the commercial and technological use of vegetable oils.
