Self-association of cellulose ethers and its effect on the starch gelatinisation

Heat-induced gelation was studied for aqueous solutions of methylcellulose (MC) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). It has been demonstrated that the evolution in time of the elastic shear modulus at different cellulose concentration can be superimposed on a universal gelation master curve, in...
