Water Sorption Isotherm of Pea Starch Edible Films and Prediction Models

Abstract: The moisture sorption isotherm of pea starch films prepared with various glycerol contents as plasticizer was investigated at different storage relative humidities (11%–96% RH) and at 5 ± 1, 15 ± 1, 25 ± 1 and 40 ± 1 °C by using gravimetric method. The results showed that the equilibrium moisture content of all films increased substantially above aw = 0.6. Films plasticized with glycerol, under all temperatures and RH conditions (11%–96%), adsorbed more moisture resulting in higher equilibrium moisture content… Show more

“…Films were formed by drying at 40°C in an oven until reaching constant weight (about 24 h). The prepared films were peeled‐off from Petri dishes and equilibrated at 25°C, 65% relative humidity for 72 h prior to further examination .…”

“…K and C are temperature dependent constants that can be used to construct sorption isotherms at different temperatures [34]. The high value of C constant shows that water molecules are more strongly adsorbed onto matrix active sites [35], whereas K provides a measure of molecular interactions between the multilayers and adsorbent [36].…”
