Wheat gluten films obtained by compression molding
Pommet et [6] prepared wheat gluten blends with 5 different plasticizers (water, glycerol, 1,4-butanediol, octanoic acid and lactic acid) in a mixing chamber at 80 and 60 °C, for hydrated and dry gluten, respectively, and then the blends were compression-molded at 100 or 130 °C.
New plasticizers for wheat gluten films - ScienceDirect
Different molecular weight polyols and amines (three hydroxyamines and one polyimine) were tested as plasticizers for gluten films. Their efficiency was compared with that of glycerol, the most commonly used plasticizer. 3.1. Preliminary screening of different substances as plasticizer: preparation and observation of the wheat gluten films
Plasticizers for Protein‐Based Materials
Blending procedure About 350 g wheat gluten powder and 150 g of plasticizer were blended using a food processor (WATT; DUKA AB, Sweden) at the lowest speed, “Speed 1” (about 95 rpm), for 60 s. About 40 g of the blend was then transferred to a Brabender plasticorder PL2000 with a M50EHT measuring head and kneaded at 50 rpm for 2 min.
Edible wheat gluten (WG) protein films | SpringerLink
Commercial wheat gluten (WG) films, hard wheat gluten films and soft wheat gluten films, plasticized with glycerol have been cast from water–ethanol solutions. The effect of aging on various film properties has been investigated. The films were aged for about 6 months at 50% relative humidity and ~25 °C, and the mechanical (tensile strength and the percentage of elongation at break (E b

Conventionally, glycerol has been used as plasticizer for gluten, but several new plasticizers have also been reported to provide better stability and mechanical properties. 12 It was shown...
