Resumen
AYALA-APONTE, Alfredo A.. Thermodynamic properties of moisture sorption in cassava flour. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2016, vol.83, n.197, pp.138-144. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v83n197.51543.
Thermodynamic adsorption properties (differential enthalpy and entropy, spreading pressure and net integral enthalpy and entropy) of cassava flour were determined at 25, 30 and 35°C to provide information about the water and energy requirements for the sorption process. The Guggenheim-Anderson-de Boer (GAB), Peleg and Halsey models were found to adequately describe the sorption characteristics, however the Peleg model provided the best fit. The enthalpy and entropy differentials decreased with increased equilibrium moisture content. The spreading pressure increased with increased water activity but decreased with increased temperature. The net integral enthalpy decreased with increased moisture content, with an asymptotic tendency to 0.2920 kJ/mol for a moisture content of 33.4% (d.m). In contrast, the net integral entropy values were negative and increased up to 0.1687 kJ/mol for a moisture content of 29.2% (d.m).
