Figure 6.
Mechanical stability and storage stability of crosslinked (CL) and non-crosslinked (NCL) hollow starch using palm oil (PO) as the template. (A) Viscosity retention (%) of starch suspension after shearing. (B-D) Image processing of non-crosslinked hollow particles after shear, before shear, and after soaking for 7 days, respectively. Size of dissociation is evaluated by pixel analysis and noted as area (μm2) (E-G) Image processing of crosslinked hollow particles after shear, before shear, and after soaked for 7 days, respectively. (H) Viscosity retention (%) of starch suspensions after soaking for 7 days. Scale bars are 200 μm. Letters above error bars indicate statistical differences (p < 0.05).
