The influence of specific mechanical energy on cornmeal viscosity measured by an on-line system during twin-screw extrusion

Abstract: The influence of specific mechanical energy (SME) on cornmeal viscosity during the twin-screw extrusion at feed moisture contents of 25 and 30% and screw speeds in the range from 100 to 500 rpm was measured. Cornmeal was extruded in a co-rotating, intermeshing twin-screw coupled to a slit die rheometer. One approach to the on-line rheological measurement is to use a slit die with the extruder. In the present work it was show that shear viscosity decreased as a function of SME. The viscosity of cornmeal at the … Show more

“…In this case, starch molecules can be depolymerized easily by heated or heated-sheared treatment, and the shear force in addition to the heat treatment contributed significantly to molecular cleavage [25] . Chang et al [26] adds that starch granules may resist under high moisture or low shear conditions, but with the increasing severity of treatment, the granules lose their semi-crystalline character.…”

“…When the screw speed was increased, the SME values were increased in both corn meal and wheat starch extrudates. 52,53 This was attributed to the greater frictional heat and simultaneous increase in temperature. Other authors reported that higher SME values in the wheat extrusion process produced greater starch conversion and degradation 54 and lower viscosity.…”

“…Other authors reported that higher SME values in the wheat extrusion process produced greater starch conversion and degradation 54 and lower viscosity. 52 This suggests that starch plays a key role in the rheological properties 52 and can affect characteristics such as gelatinisation, expansion, BD and fragility (texture) of the extruded products. 27,41,43 This response shows a high degree of association (at p < 0.001) with EI (r = 0.95) and BD (r = À0.92).…”

“…Desta forma, o aumento do IE pode estar relacionado com a maior redução do peso mo- FBJ RP IE lecular da matriz amilácea fundida no interior do extrusor o que pode ter contribuído para reduzir a resistência da matriz polimérica à pressão interna das bolhas, que irão favorecer a maior porosidade da estrutura final das farinhas mistas extrusadas. No entanto, alta quebra molecular pela ação da energia mecânica pode, ao contrário, reduzir a expansão final do extrusado [14], que neste caso não foi suficientemente grande para reduzir o IE. A relação inversa entre a porcentagem de farinha de bagaço de jabuticaba e o IE se deve à diminuição da proporção de material amiláceo na mistura e as fibras incluídas não fornecem suficiente material viscoso, afetando as propriedades reológicas do produto extrusado.…”
