Material Metrology & Physical Properties: Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is a premium culinary oil mechanically pressed from olive fruits without chemical solvent refining. Under International Olive Council (IOC) standards, authentic olive oil has a reference physical density of 0.9180 kg/L (7.661 lbs per US gallon) at 20°C (68°F), with specific gravity ranging from 0.915 to 0.920.
Because plant lipids are lighter than water, culinary oils float on aqueous liquids. Olive oil expands significantly when warmed and congeals into an opaque, semi-solid cloudy wax when chilled below 10°C (50°F). In international bulk trade across Mediterranean exporters, cargo volumes are bought and sold on certified weighbridge mass (metric tons) rather than volumetric liters.
Bottling facilities utilize gravimetric rotary filling carousels to dispense exact net kilograms into glass carboys and retail tins, ensuring compliance with trade measurement laws without thermal volumetric expansion errors.
Combustible culinary liquid. Protect from direct ultraviolet light, oxygen, and heat to prevent photo-oxidation and rancidity. Store in dark glass or stainless steel vessels.
