Comparison of Physicochemical Properties of Starch Acetates Prepared by Conventional, Preheat Treatment and Extrusion Process

습식법과 예열처리법 및 Extrusion 공정에 의해 제조한 초산전분의 이화학적 성질비교

Starch acetates were prepared by conventional method, preheat treatment, and extrusion process through acetylation of corn starch with acetic anhydride and their physicochemical properties were investigated. The optimal conditions of the acetylation of starch by conventional method(CSA) was found that starch concentration was 30%, reaction temperature $35^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.5. With increasing the molar ratio of acetic anhydride to anhydrous glucose unit from 0.03 to 0.20, DS(Degree of substitution) value of corn starch acetate prepared at the optimum condition was increased from 0.019 to 0.080, while the acetylation efficiency was decreased from 31.6% to 20.5%. In the case of the preheated (gelatinized), then acetylated starch(PSA), DS value was increased from 0.027 to 0.04 at the fixed molar ratio of the acetic anhydride with increasing preheating temperature from $60^{\circ}C\;to\;90^{\circ}C$. The DS was low as 0.02 in the case of starch acetate prepared by extrusion process(WESA). The CSA and PSA showed lowering gelatinization temperature and enthalpy than raw corn starch with increasing DS. All of starch acetates showed the increased degree of transparency, the decreased lightness and the increased yellowness as compared to the raw corn starch. WESA showed lower apparent viscosity and more close to the characteristic of the Newtonian fluid than CSA and PSA. Intrinsic viscosity was reduced in CSA and WESA, although PSA has a slightly higher one than raw corn starch. The rate of retrogradation of the gels was retarded in all starch acetates.

옥수수전분을 무수초산과 아세틸화반응을 시켜 슬러리상태의 재래적인 방법과 예열처리에 의한 방법 및 extrusion 공정에 의하여 초산전분을 제조하여 이화학적 성질을 비교하였다. 재래적인 방법으로의 초산전분을 제조(CSA)할 경우 최고의 치환도를 갖는 반응 최적조건은 반응온도 $35^{\circ}C$와 반응 pH8.5이었다. Anhydrous glucose unit에 대하여 무수초산의 mole비를 0.03에서 0.2로 증가시킬 경우 최적조건에서의 치환도는 0.019에서 0.082로 증가한 반면 아세틸화반응 수율은 31.6%에서 20.5%로 감소되었다. 예열처리를 $65^{\circ}C$와 $90^{\circ}C$에서 처리하여 초산전분제조(PSA)시 치환도는 각각 0.027과 0.040 이었다. Extrusion 공정에 의한 초산전분제조(WESA)시 치환도는 0.02이었다. 초산전분의 호화개시온도와 호화 enthalpy는 치환도가 증가함에 따라 원료전분보다 낮아졌다. 모든 초산전분시료가 원료전분에 비하여 투명도가 증가되었고 색도에 있어서 명도는 감소되었고 황색도는 증가되었다. WESA 시료는 원료전분, CSA 및 PSA 시료에 비해 낮은 곁보기점도를 보였으며 뉴우톤성 유체에 접근하였다. 고유점도는 CSA와 WESA 시료가 원료전분보다 낮았으나 PSA 시료는 약간 큰 값을 보였다. 초산전분겔의 노화시간상수는 모든 초산전분시료가 원료전분보다 큰 상수값을 보였다.
