The 1st authoritative resource at the topic, this reference discusses a few of the degrees of constitution that impact the macroscopic actual houses of fats crystal networks. fats Crystal Networks summarizes 50 years of structural learn within the box, in addition to a wealth of knowledge on fats crystal networks pertinent to real-world demanding situations in undefined. The e-book covers the actual chemistry of crystallization, emphasizing constitution and mechanical homes in addition to crystallization approaches, and rheology of crystal networks in fat and lipid structures.

Featuring a electronic library containing 8000 high-resolution photographs of crystallized fat together with cocoa butter, milkfat, milkfat fractions, and palm oil, the booklet includes cutting-edge developments gleaned from the editor's own examine within the box in addition to contributions from numerous extremely popular colleagues. fats Crystal Networks illustrates a variety of analytical methodologies together with pioneering reviews at the use of three-d microscopy and the microanalysis of fats crystal networks and an advent to using fractal research within the usual sciences. It additionally highlights fresh ways to regulate fats performance via mixing and actual manipulation, in-depth learn on hand at the section habit of triacylglycerols, and insurance of formula difficulties presently affecting the nutrients industry.
