Abstract

ABSTRACTA model was developed to simulate diluted emulsions of clouding agents in beverages using uniform latex particles (ULP) at different concentrations and particle sizes ranging from 0.10 to 5.85 μm. The model allows determination of optimum concentration and diameter of suspended particles in diluted suspensions. Turbidity measurements showed that, for a given particle concentration, the haze of a diluted suspension reached a maximum when the diameter of the ULP was decreased to 0.2‐0.3 μm. A comparison of typical citrus oil in water beverage emulsions with diluted ULP suspensions showed that, when size of suspended oil globules was varied, a similar optimum particle size was found.
