Analysis of granule size for starches having different crystalline structure.
| Sample | Moisture Content, % | Weighted Arithmetic Mean Diameter, µm | d(0,1), µm 1 | d(0,5), µm 1 | d(0,9), µm 1 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Corn Starch | 7.2 ± 0.3 | 13.1 ± 0.1 | 3.5 | 12.5 | 18.9 |
| Potato Starch | 9.0 ± 0.5 | 43.1 ± 0.1 | 18.9 | 37.7 | 65.5 |
| Tapioca Starch | 8.1 ± 0.4 | 13.7 ± 0.1 | 3.6 | 12.5 | 18.9 |
1 d(0,1), d(0,5), d(0,9)—such a granule diameter value at which 10%, 50%, or 90% of all granules have a smaller diameter.
