Abstract

AbstractBased on sorption isotherms or equilibrium relative humidity curves, the packaging characteristics of garlic powder have been determined. It is shown that (1) garlic powder is a highly hygroscopic product, picking up moisture even at 20% R.H.; (2) for a typical garlic powder (moisture 6%), the equilibrium relative humidity at 25° is about 13%; (3) the critical point for garlic powder as regards caking was found to be at 10.6% moisture level, and the danger point at 9.5%.
