Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the crystallization behavior of binary mixtures of milkfat and sunflower oil in different ratios and their respective structured lipids obtained by chemical interesterification. Solid fat content, consistency, softening point and polarized light microscopy were used to analyze the mixtures before and after interesterification. The addition of sunflower oil and the interesterification changed the milkfat crystallization, through the effect of the dilution and rearrangement of the triacylglycerols. Video files in WMV format were made in order to study the crystallization at 20 °C. The videos made it possible to observe crystal structure formation and they represent a tool of great importance in the fats and oils crystallization research.
