Abstract

The object of research is aqueous dispersions of polysaccharides. One of the most problematic factors is the insufficient study and study of the physicochemical properties of polysaccharides, in particular starch. Among natural polysaccharides, starch occupies a unique position. It has a wide range of applications across many industries and technologies. This is what determines a large number of studies of the state of starch of various botanical origin under the action of various factors that have appeared in the literature recently. Natural polysaccharides, in contrast to synthetic ones, are characterized by a partial ordered structure, formed in the process of synthesis and growth. In the course of the study, a new method of relaxation in starch mixtures was proposed. It was found that structural relaxation in time is slow and long. It was also found that the physicochemical characteristic of polysaccharides, relaxation, is explained by a partially ordered structure with the mutual arrangement of individual chains in a spatial network. It was shown that, under the action of shear stresses, the retest destroys the pseudoplastic liquid structures of aqueous dispersions of starch, followed by restoration to an equilibrium state within 17 hours. The process of recovery or structural relaxation of the spatial structures of aqueous dispersions of polysaccharides occurs due to the rearrangement of the spatial network of the polymer and is formed due to the existence of cross-linked chemical bonds. Thanks to this method of using polysaccharides, it is possible to obtain improved organoleptic, structural, mechanical and physicochemical characteristics of food products. Compared to similar thickeners (pectin, flour), native potato and corn starches provide and provide structural form to products such as sauces, puddings, pastries, minced meat, fish products, and low fat dairy products. In the food system, the role of polysaccharides is to stabilize structure and interact with other components to deliver or maintain nutrients and taste.

Highlights

  • Raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products of the food and processing industry have various structural and mechanical properties, such as elasticity, flexibility, strength, creep, thixotropy, fluidity

  • In the course of the study, the rheological behavior of aqueous dispersions of starch was shown at various stages of restoring the structure of non-Newtonian fluids

  • Possible models of their relaxation were considered, and the existence of ordered structures formed during interaction with water molecules surrounding the hydrocarbon chains of biopolymers was confirmed

Summary

Introduction

Semi-finished products and finished products of the food and processing industry have various structural and mechanical properties, such as elasticity, flexibility, strength, creep, thixotropy, fluidity These properties of food systems depend on temperature, humidity, pressure, mode of transport, means and storage time. These factors affect the behavior of the structure during its deformation, during mechanical processing: grind­ ing, forming, stamping, etc. The organoleptic properties and especially the taste of water are of great physiological importance for maintaining the water-salt balance of the human body and largely determine the process of its preparation in food production. There is a change in the nature of intermolecular interactions in starch biomacromolecules in the temperature range 40–70 °C and its ordered structure is transformed [5, 6]. The aim of research is to study the structural behavior of aqueous dispersions of potato and corn starches
