Abstract
Rheological properties of cross-linked waxy maize starch in the concentration range of 3–6% w w were evaluated using a computer controlled rotational viscometer equipped with a high temperature/high pressure attachment and a magnetic coupling. The influence of temperature on the rheological parameters was evaluated in the temperature range 60–140 °C. The flow curves essentially followed the power law model and both the consistency coefficient and flow behaviour index were sensitive to changes in temperature and concentration. Temperature dependency followed the Turian model.
