Pore development in viscoelastic foods during drying
R.G.M. van der Sman, Michele Curatolo, Luciano Teresi
Abstract
, the ratio of (moisture dependent) glass transition temperature and actual product temperature. We clearly show that pore inflation only occurs if the skin gets into a glassy state, as has been observed during the (spray) drying of droplets of soft materials like foods.
