Two thermal analysis techniques &ndash; Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Differential thermal analysis (DTA), &ndash; were used to study the cryoprotective effects of polydextrose on chicken surimi. The samples of chicken surimi were mixed with: (a) different mass fractions of polydextrose (w = 2&ndash;10%), (b) &kappa;-carrageenan (w = 0.5%) and different mass fractions of polydextrose (w = 2&ndash;10%), and (c) NaCl (w = 2%) and different mass fractions of polydextrose (w = 2&ndash;10%). Chicken surimi was produced following a modified procedure of Dawson et al. (1988) on a broiler (Sasso, 12 weeks, and 1.73 kg live wt.), that was quickly frozen and stored for 3 months at &ndash;25&deg;C. Initial freezing point (<sub><sup>T</sup>i</sub>), thermal transition temperature (T<sub>p</sub>), and denaturation enthalpy (&Delta;H) were evaluated. The greatest effects of the cryoscopic depression of the initial freezing point T<sub>i</sub> were exhibited by the samples of chicken surimi with added 2% NaCl and 10% polydextrose. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed a shift in the thermal transition temperature of myosin and actin to a higher temperature as the mass fraction of polydextrose increased. Since the denaturation enthalpy is directly related to the amount of native proteins, higher values of &Delta;H indicate higher cryoprotective effects of polydextrose. &nbsp;

The cryoprotective effects of trehalose and maltose (w = 2&ndash;10%) on washed beef meat were investigated. Washed beef meat produced from fresh beef meat was frozen and stored for 360 days at &ndash;30&deg;C. Myofibrillar protein functional stability was monitored by salt extractable protein (SEP) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Salt extractable protein (SEP) showed that the addition of trehalose and maltose causeda smaller loss of protein solubility during the frozen storage. Peak thermal transition (T<sub>p</sub>) and denaturation enthalpy (&Delta;H) of myofibrillar proteins were evaluated. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed a shift in the peak thermal transition temperature (T<sub>p</sub>) of myosin and actin to higher temperature as the mass fractions of trehalose and maltose increased. The transitions enthalpies of myosin and actin of the washed beef meat samples showed a higher increase with the increase of mass fraction of trehalose then of that of maltose. Since the value of denaturation enthalpy is directly related to the amount of native proteins, higher values of &Delta;H point to higher cryoprotective effects of trehalose.

AbstractWe present an overview for the basic fundamental of thermal analysis, which is applicable for educational purposes, especially for lecturers at the universities, who may refer to the articles as the references to “teach” or to “lecture” to final year project students or young researchers who are working on their postgraduate projects. Description of basic instrumentation [i.e. differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TGA)] covers from what we should know about the instrument, calibration, baseline and samples’ signal. We also provide the step-by-step guides for the estimation of the glass transition temperature after DSC as well as examples and exercises are included, which are applicable for teaching activities. Glass transition temperature is an important property for commercial application of a polymeric material, e.g. packaging, automotive, etc. TGA is also highlighted where the analysis gives important thermal degradation information of a material to avoid sample decomposition during the DSC measurement. The step-by-step guides of the estimation of the activation energy after TGA based on Hoffman’s Arrhenius-like relationship are also provided.

AbstractThe paper deals with the study of seven selected natural plant oils. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and thermally stimulated discharge (TSD) methods were used. It has been found that most of the oils tested are in a glassy state at low temperature and have multiple transitions in the low temperature range. DSC shows complex melting-like processes or glass transition. For both DMA and TSD, the scaffold supportive method was used and found as a suitable one. DMA and TSD proved more sensitive than DSC and revealed at least two transitions between − 120 and − 40 °C. In the case of three oils (argan, avocado and sunflower), current reversal was observed by TSD; this symptom cannot be fully explained at the moment.

Polymeric packaging materials are one of the factors of environmental pollution. Reducing the environmental burden is possible by increasing the environmental friendliness of packaging materials. In this work, we study polymer films based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with a copolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate with 3-hydroxyhexanoate P (3-GB) (3-GG) with different component ratios. The process of processing blends in the process of obtaining a packaging film is considered. The optical characteristics of the obtained films are determined. Thermal analysis of the obtained films was carried out using the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), TGA, and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) methods. The degree of gelling of the resulting mixture was determined. It is shown that PHB has miscibility with PVC.

Thermal Degradation Process

The synthesis, characterization and thermal degradation of yttrium and lanthanum methanesulfonates is reported. The prepared salts were characterized by elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. The thermal degradation study was performed using thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).Using the thermogravimetric data, a kinetic study of the dehydration ofY and Lamethanesulfonates was performed employing the Coats-Redfern and Zsak?methods. It was verified that under heating, yttrium and lanthanum methanesulfonates undergo three main processes: dehydration, thermal degradation and oxide formation. Furthermore, depending on the nature of the atmosphere, i.e., inert or oxidant, the thermal degradation process could be endothermic (N2) or exothermic (air).
