Solute-Polymer States of Water and the Physico-Chemical Properties of Food Model Systems (Crystallinity, Sorption, Hysteresis, Starch)

Abstract

dc:description

The objective was first to study physico-chemical properties of solute-polymer mixtures as related to water binding, solute content and water activity (a(,w)). It was hypothesized that these properties were due to the presence of solute (SOL) and polymer (POL) water. The second objective was to develop a non-invasive analytical method for SOL and POL.
