Using SANS to understand the behaviour of surfactants at oil/sugar interfaces in chocolate
The high dynamic range diffractometer will be used to measure the SANS from mixtures of oil and sucrose as a model for molten chocolate. The oil and sucrose will be contrast matched such that the SANS is dominated by the scattering from the lipid surfactant components found in chocolate (DPPC/DPPE) and the polymeric surfactant PGPR. The ultimate goal is to link the interfacial structure to the rheological properties, which is relevant to processing and mouth feel.
