Arabinoxylan-lipid-based edible films and coatings. 3. Influence of drying temperature on film structure and functional properties

摘要

This work is a contribution to better knowledge of the influence of the structure of films obtained from emulsions based on arabinoxylans, hydrogenated palm kernel oil, and emulsifiers on their functional properties. The sucrose esters (emulsifiers) have a great effect on the stabilization of the emulsified film structure containing arabinoxylans and hydrogenated palm kernel oil. The structure and stability of the emulsion during drying strongly affect barrier and mechanical properties of films. The higher are creaming and coalescence phenomena in films, the lower is the water vapor permeability. Emulsion destabilization is favored by high drying temperature and tends to give films having a "bilayer-like" structure, which tends to improve the functional properties of arabinoxylans-based.
