Mixing selectively WP with RP results to a wide range of textural properties. • When gel coarseness decreases, synergistic stiffening is pronounced. • Synergy occurs when the rheological moduli of the individual gels are minimized. • Synergistic stiffening leads to tailored water holding properties in mixed gels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
