Abstract

To characterize water sorption of maltodextrin various DE, several physical properties were determined, including molecular weight, glass transition temperature, sorption isotherm and 1H pulsed NMR. The average numbers of molecular weight (Mn) and average weight of molecular weight (Mw) were 1,800,27,000; 900, 7,700; 700, 4,400 and water at monolayer were 5.5296, 4.6753 and 4.4553 g water/100 g dry solid for maltodextrin DE 5, 14 and 18.5 respectively. Sorption isotherms indicated DE 5 and DE 14 to exhibit an “s” shape isotherm while for DE 18.5 a discontinuous isotherm occurred. Maltodextrin DE 5 adsorbed more water than DE 14 and 18.5. Dual Sorption theory was applied for sorption data analysis and the parameter (C′H) was estimated. The results indicated that maltodextrin DE 5 had higher sorption in “microvoid” than maltodextrin DE 14 and 18.5. This was strongly supported with the results obtained by 1H pulsed NMR, that maltodextrin DE 5 had more mobile proton mobility in the low relative humidity region than maltodextrin DE 18.5.
