The effects of starch concentration on the rheological properties of dilute aqueous solutions of cassava starch were investigated. Cassava starch suspensions at different starch concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 wt. %) were heated at 90 degrees C for 1 h and then rapidly cooled to 25 degrees C. The apparent viscosities of starch solutions were measured as a function of starch concentration. The cassava starch solution with a concentration of 0.2% showed Newtonian behavior, and as the concentration was increased beyond 0.4%, the solutions showed shear-thinning behavior. The flow behavior (apparent viscosity against shear rate) of the solutions was well described using a power law model. The consistency indices increased and the flow behavior indices decreased with the increasing of starch concentration. After storing the solutions at 25 degrees C for 24 h, precipitation of starch took place instead of gelation. The volume of precipitation bed increased linearly with starch concentration.

Shear-thickening properties of waxy maize starch dispersions Wang, Bao; Wang, Li-jun; Li, Dong; Zhou, Yu-guang; Özkan, Necati (2011-12-01) The influences of starch concentration and test conditions on the shear-thickening behavior of waxy maize starch (WMS) dispersions were investigated. During steady shear tests, both the concentration of WMS and test temperature influenced the shear thickening behavior of the WMS dispersions significantly. The critical shear rate for shear thickening was increased with the increasing of temperature and the decreasing of WMS concentration. No effect of gap size on the shear thickening of the WMS dispersions w...
Anti-thixotropic properties of waxy maize starch dispersions with different pasting conditions Wang, Bao; Li, Dong; Wang, Li-Jun; Özkan, Necati (2010-03-17) The effects of pasting conditions, testing temperature, and shear rate on the anti-thixotropy of waxy maize starch (WMS) dispersions were investigated in this study. Activation energy and viscoelastic properties of the WMS dispersions were also determined to understand the anti-thixotropy of these dispersions. The WMS dispersions (5.0 wt.%) displayed both thixotropic and anti-thixotropic properties in loop and shear recovery tests, depending on pasting conditions and testing temperature. The standard anti-t...
Rheological properties of waxy maize starch and xanthan gum mixtures in the presence of sucrose Wang, Bao; Wang, Li-Jun; Li, Dong; Özkan, Necati; Li, Shu-Jun; Mao, Zhi-Huai (2009-07-11) Rheological properties of 5% (w/w) waxy maize starch (WMS)/xanthan gum (XG) mixed pastes (mixing ratios: 10/0, 9.5/0.5, 9/1) in the presence of sucrose (0%, 15%, and 30%) were studied. The 5% WMS paste displayed strong anti-thixotropic behavior based on the heating method adopted (heating in water bath for 40 min with mixing at 200 rpm). The addition of XG could accelerate the formation of new structure of the WMS/XG mixed pastes under shear conditions, and XG could also decrease the in-shear recoveries of ...
Effects of Defatted Flaxseed Addition on Rheological Properties of Wheat Flour Slurry HAO, Changchun; Lİ, Dong; Mao, Zhihuai; Özkan, Necati; Chen, Xiao Dong (2013-12-01) Rheological property of defatted flaxseed-added wheat flour dispersions was investigated as a function of defatted flaxseed concentration (0-20%), NaCl concentration (0, 0.6, and 1.2%), sucrose concentration (0, 5, and 10%), and slurry concentration (33and 62.5%). Frequency sweep tests at 20 degrees C and temperature sweep tests from 20 to 90 degrees C were applied to the samples. The experimental measurements demonstrated that the viscoelastic moduli of samples increased with the increase in defatted flaxs...
Viscosity measurement and modeling of lipid supercritical carbon dioxide mixtures Yener, Meryem Esra; Rizvi, SSH; Harriott, P (1998-01-31) The viscosities of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) containing different levels of methyl oleate and oleic acid were measured with a high pressure capillary viscometer. The SC-CO2-methyl oleate system was evaluated at 313.15, 323.15 and 333.15 K and 11.5, 13.7 and 15.5 MPa, respectively. The SC-CO2-oleic acid system was evaluated at 313.15 K and 20.5 and 30.0 MPa and 333.15 K and 30.0 MPa. The increase in SC-CO2 viscosity was as high as 15-20% at the maximum methyl oleate concentrations (4-5 wt%) and 6...
