The effects of agar, alginate, butter, olive oil, and carrots on the mechanical and rheological properties of potato puree prepared by two different cooking methods (microwave heating (MP) and boiling (BP)) were investigated and interpreted in terms of starch microstructural changes. Microscopic observations revealed more aggregated and densely concentrated starch granules in MP samples. This consequently led to a significant increase (p < 0.05) in mechanical and rheological properties up to five times more than BP samples. All samples exhibited shear thinning non-Newtonian behavior. Butter proved its ability to maintain stiff network formation with starch molecules forming lipid-starch complexes characterized by high retention properties and increased stability due to high thixotropic and yield stress values. The pseudo-plasticity combined with high self-supporting ability (high yield stress and mechanical values) comprised by MP samples allows them to better behave during advanced technological processes such as extrusion 3D food printing.

AbstractThe relationships among colloidal stability, suspension rheology, and solids loading are elucidated for zirconia-alumina mixtures containing 20 vol% ZrO2, based on solids. The lower colloidal stability of ZrO2 limits the rheological properties of this system. If the zeta potential of ZrO2 is less than 49 mV, high degrees of pseudoplasticity, high yield stress, high viscosity, and long relaxation times characterize the binary suspensions. These effects occur, despite the fact that ZrO2 is the minor ceramic constituent. If the zeta potential of ZrO2 is maintained above 49 mV, suspensions with high solids loading (55 vol%) can be prepared which behave as Newtonian fluids over the 0-to-200 s−1 shear rate range and as an elastic solid at higher rates. As the solids loading of a highly stable binary suspension is increased, the rheological properties change. They evolve from those of a near Newtonian-like fluid with nearly independent particles (40 vol%) to those of a pseudoplastic fluid with a weakly interacting particle network (50 vol%) to those of an elastic-like solid composed of crowded, strongly repulsive particles (55 vol%). Low-shear conditions for suspension-transport and mold-filling operations that ensure a homogeneous arrangement of ZrO2 and A12O3 particles in a gelcast ceramic seem promising.

The rheological properties of novel MR fluids are characterized using a parallel plate MR shear rheometer. In these MR fluids the surface of iron particles is coated with a polymer. The rheological properties are measured and compared at various magnetic field strengths, shear rates and strain amplitudes. It has been shown that these MR fluids exhibit stable and desirable rheological properties such as, low viscosity and high yield stress.

There have been studied physical, flour-milling, technological features of the grain of the new varieties and lines of winter soft wheat developed by the FSBSI “Agricultural Research Center “Donskoy”. The purpose of the study is to identify samples with high quality of grain, flour, rheological properties of dough and baking profits. High values of grain unit and general vitreousness of grain are revealed. The samples “1237/13” (14.6%), “1261/13” (14.5%) and “Nakhodka” (14.5%) formed protein content at the level of strong wheat of the 1st class (not less than 14.5%). The varieties “Tanais” (30.9%), “Aksiniya” (30.2%), “Nakhodka” (29.5%), “Donskaya step” (28.6%) and the line “1261/13” (28.4%) showed high content of gluten in the grain of the 2nd class of quality. The studied varieties and lines of winter wheat were characterized by a high yield of flour, more than 70%. The maximum yield of flour was obtained in the variet­ies “Tanais” (74.5%), “Ermak” (74.1%) and the line “1261/13” (74.2%). According to the color, the flour of the samples (54.0–80.0 con­ventional units) “Aksiniya” (55.64 conv. units), “Nakhodka” (55.18 conv. units), “Kipchak” (54.01 conv. units), “Bonus” (54.90 conv. units), “Kazachka” (54.40 conv. units) and the line “1261/13” (54.30 conv. units) corresponded to the highest grade. There were identi­fied variety differences in flour color and ash content, which the quality of the end product largely depends on. The 6 studied varieties “Yubiley Dona” (342 u. a.), “Nakhodka” (311 u. a.), “Shef” (292 u. a.), “Kipchak” (290 u. a.), “Tanais” (289 u. a.) and “Aksiniya” (289 u. a.) showed high rheological properties of the dough at the level of strong wheat. There were identified the samples with high yield of bread “Nakhodka” (705 ml), “Aksiniya” (695 ml) and “Donskaya Step” (685 ml), which corresponded to the class of strong wheat. The identi­fied varieties and lines can be used in the breeding process as the sources with high grain quality and baking properties.

Carbon films have been a support of choice for high resolution electron microscopy since the introduction of vacuum evaporation of carbon. The desirable qualities of carbon films and methods of producing them has been extensively reviewed. It is difficult to get a high yield of grids by many of these methods, especially if virtually all of the windows must be covered with a tightly bonded, quality film of predictable thickness. We report here a method for producing carbon foils designed to maximize these attributes: 1) coverage of virtually all grid windows, 2) freedom from holes, wrinkles or folds, 3) good adhesion between film and grid, 4) uniformity of film and low noise structure, 5) predictability of film thickness, and 6) reproducibility.Our method utilizes vacuum evaporation of carbon from a fiber onto celloidin film and grid bars, adhesion of the film complex to the grid by carbon-carbon contact, and removal of the celloidin by acetone dissolution. Materials must be of high purity, and cleanliness must be rigorously maintained.

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a crystallizable thermoplastic used as composite matrix materials in application which requires high yield stress, high toughness, long term high temperature service, and resistance to solvent and radiation. There have been several reports on the crystallization behavior of neat PEEK and of CF/PEEK composite. Other reports discussed the effects of crystallization on the mechanical properties of PEEK and CF/PEEK composites. However, these reports were all concerned with the crystallization or melting processes at or close to atmospheric pressure. Thus, the effects of high pressure on the crystallization of CF/PEEK will be examined in this study.The continuous carbon fiber reinforced PEEK (CF/PEEK) laminate composite with 68 wt.% of fibers was obtained from Imperial Chemical Industry (ICI). For the high pressure experiments, HIP was used to keep these samples under 1000, 1500 or 2000 atm. Then the samples were slowly cooled from 420 °C to 60 °C in the cooling rate about 1 - 2 degree per minute to induce high pressure crystallization. After the high pressure treatment, the samples were scanned in regular DSC to study the crystallinity and the melting temperature. Following the regular polishing, etching, and gold coating of the sample surface, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to image the microstructure of the crystals. Also the samples about 25mmx5mmx3mm were prepared for the 3-point bending tests.
