Evaluating the Oil‐Gelling Properties of Natural Waxes in Rice Bran Oil: Rheological, Thermal, and Microstructural Study

Abstract: The main objective of this research was to enhance the understanding of the oil‐structuring properties of natural waxes. A number of natural food‐grade waxes were evaluated for their oil‐gelling properties using a combination of techniques, including rheology, differential scanning calorimetry, and polarized light microscopy. Based on the rheological measurements (oscillatory, flow, and thixotropic behavior), we found that rice bran wax, carnauba Brazilian wax and fruit wax showed weak gelling behavior in rice… Show more

“…[20][21][22] CW also shows a high thixotropic recovery of %59%, which is interesting to improve the structure recovery properties of hybrid systems. We hypothesized that if the oil would be gelled inside the structured protein network, the system would not be as sensitive to structural breakdown.…”

“…Oleogels maintain the fatty acid profile of the gelled oils, such as the functionality and texture of the final products (Stortz et al, 2012). Several food grade compounds as structuring agents with oilgelling properties had been proposed as gelators, like sugar alcohol-based mannitol dioctanoate and sorbitol dioctanoate (Jadhav et al, 2013), natural waxes (Doan et al, 2015), shellac resin (Patel et al, 2014), and chitin, the second most abundant organic material in nature after cellulose (Nikifordis and Scholten, 2015). Cellulose is the major building block of the cell-wall structures of higher plants, and despite the large variety of cellulose derivatives that have been made, only a few cellulose ethers find application and are approved for use in foodstuffs, where the most widely used cellulose derivative is sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Coffey et al, 2006).…”

“…The use of an oil structuring agent may be a solution to increase viscosity and physical stability of this kind of products. Beeswax is just an example of these oil structuring agents (Doan et al, 2015). The use of beeswax as suspension stabilizer may be a viable global alternative to other products more expensive.…”
