Properties of microcrystalline cellulose and powder cellulose after extrusion/spheronization as studied by fourier transform Raman spectroscopy and environmental scanning electron microscopy

Effects of Microcrystalline Cellulose and Hydroxypropylmethyl Cellulose on the Properties of Dough and Flat Bread (Iranian Barbari Bread)

There are many reports on the application of different hydrocolloids in the production of leavened breads; most of which show positive effects on bread quality. However, there is little information to prove such effect on flat breads. The main aim of this study was to improve the quality of Barbari dough and bread (Iranian flat bread) in terms of texture, taste and general acceptability of fres...

Fourier Transform Infrared and Fourier Transform Raman Spectroscopy of Polymers

This chapter covers the fundamental principles and current applications of Fourier transform (FT) infrared and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopies as utilized in the analysis of polymeric materials. The primary emphasis of the first part is on the principles and advantages of these interferometric methods, whereas the remaining sections illustrate numerous applications focusing on the struct...

Overview on Native Cellulose and Microcrystalline Cellulose I Structure Studied by X-ray Diffraction (waxd): Comparison between Measurement Techniques

The crystalline structure of cellulose has been studied for a long time. It is well known that crystallinity of cellulose can be measured using quite a number of methods, X-ray diffraction, solid state C CP-MAS NMR, Fourier transforminfrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The solid state C CP-MAS NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy considers contributions from both crystalline and non-crys...

Archaeological Ceramics Studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy

The use of scanning electron microscopy combined with energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis in studies of archaeological pottery is discussed. The methods are described and results of their application to studies of Precolumbian glossy black pottery from northern Peru are reported in some detail.
