    Critical Evaluation Of Crispy And Crunchy Textures: A Review

    No full text
    Crispness and crunchiness are important factors in the enjoyment of many foods, but they are defined differently among dictionaries, consumers, and researchers. Sensory, mechanical, and acoustic methods have been used to provide data on crispness and crunchiness. Sensory measurements include biting force and sound intensity. Mechanical techniques resemble mastication and include flex, shear, and compression. Acoustical techniques measure frequency, intensity, and number of sound events. Water and oil content contribute to crispness and crunchiness, which also have temporal aspects. Information in the literature is compared in this article to develop definitions of crispness and crunchiness.

    Exposing an extruded corn snack, an extruded biodegradable packing material, carrots, and wood chip cork to relative humidity conditions ranging from 29.5 to 97.5% changed their moisture content and affected the respective internal structures. The extruded corn snack and extruded biodegradable packing material specimens evaluated after 24 h, absorbed moisture and lost crispness. Carrot and cork specimens were evaluated after 48 h; carrots lost moisture, became softer, and decreased in hardness from 55.02 +/- 7.59 to 23.6 +/- 8.6 N, while cork specimens were unchanged. For all products, loss of moisture increased surface roughness. Increasing moisture amplified turgidity and strength in extruded biodegradable packing material, decreased crispness in extruded corn snack, and stiffness in carrot, but produced no changes in the wood chip cork.16492894

    New Experimental Rig to Investigate Abrasive–Corrosive Characteristics of Metals in Aqueous Media

    A new tribometer to investigate a conjoint effect of three-body abrasion and corrosion has been developed. In this design, a flat wear sample is loaded against a rotating cylindrical disc counterface and the abrasive slurry is delivered to the contact interface. Capabilities of the newly developed tribometer have been assessed through conducting abrasion–corrosion tests involving simultaneous electrochemical measurements. In this work, the stability of the passive layer on stainless steel under three-body abrasive wear in a near neutral electrolyte was investigated using potentiodynamic polarization tests. 316L Stainless Steel wear samples were abraded by coarse garnet particles in an aerated sodium sulphate electrolyte. The effects of load and speed on the polarization curves and passivity of 316L steel were determined. It was found that under abrasion–corrosion conditions 316L steel became more thermodynamically active and the passive corrosion rate has increased. Increasing the contact load resulted in a small increase in the passive corrosion current, while increasing the rotating speed had the opposite effect of decreasing the current. Linear polarization resistance method was used to analyse corrosion current changes with time during abrasion–corrosion testing. The existence of three distinct stages was explained by the third-body effect on the corrosion potential and current.First stage was revealed by continuous decrease of corrosion potential. Then, the potential reached a plateau for the second and third stages. In the first and second stages, particle constraint in the contact zone plays the major role and a linear rise in corrosion current with time has been recorded. After a certain amount of surface roughening, no further increase in particles entrapment is expected. Therefore, in the third stage steady-state corrosion current values are anticipated. The rig developed can also be used to simulate two-body abrasion–corrosion. The capabilities of the new rig have been compared against other experimental set-ups used in studies of combined abrasion–corrosion behaviour
