Hydrometer Brix: sucrose Lactometers: milk density Oleometers: veg. oil 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

5 Lecture 4 – Physical Attributes Chapter 2, pgs. 21-48
Foams: products with large amounts of air incorporated during processing Whipped cream, sherbet, ice cream Describe using “overrun”: % increase in volume attributed to air Icemilk: % Sherbet: % Cream: % 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

6 Lecture 4 – Physical Attributes Chapter 2, pgs. 21-48
Particulate Materials Solid Density: weight per unit volume excluding interior pores Particle Density: weight per unit volume of individual kernel Bulk Density: weight per total volume occupied by large quantity of kernels Density of water is different than other components…we can distinguish solid density and water density 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

7 For water and solids: BOOK CORRECTION ex. 2.4
Lecture 4 – Physical Attributes Chapter 2, pgs For water and solids: BOOK CORRECTION ex. 2.4 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

8 Lecture 4 – Physical Attributes Chapter 2, pgs. 21-48
“particle density is highly dependent on moisture content” EX: suppose the soybean moisture content were 0.16 and the kernel density were g/cm3 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

Bulk density Determined by pouring a sample into a container with known dimensions. Variables: method of filling and striking surface Conversion: 1 bushel = ft^3 or m^3 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4

12 Lecture 4 – Physical Attributes Chapter 2, pgs. 21-48
Test Weight Factors affecting test weight…moisture content, broken kernels, fines, variety/hybrid, growing conditions Bulk density Table 2.3 (you will need this table later on!!!) Porosity: space between particles, not within particles Calculated from bulk density and particle density Example 2.6 1/16/07 BAE2023 Physical Properties of Biological Materials Lecture 4
