Every application of a substance results from the macroscopic property of the substance that is related to the substance's microscopic structure. For example, the forged park gate in your city was produced thanks to the malleability and ductility of metals, which are related to the ability of shifting of layers of metal cations, while fire extinguishing powders use the high boiling point of compounds related to their regular ionic and covalent structures. This also applies to polymers. The purpose of this review is to summarise and present information on selected food-related biopolymers, with special attention on their respective structures, related properties, and resultant applications. Moreover, this paper also highlights how the treatment method used affects the structure, properties, and, hence, applications of some polysaccharides. Despite a strong focus on food-related biopolymers, this review is addressed to a broad community of both material engineers and food researchers.
物质的每一种应用都源于该物质与微观结构相关的宏观性质。例如,你所在城市的锻造公园大门是利用金属的延展性制造出来的,这与金属阳离子层的移动能力有关,而灭火粉末则利用了与它们规则的离子和共价结构相关的化合物的高沸点。这也适用于聚合物。本综述的目的是总结并呈现有关选定的食品相关生物聚合物的信息,特别关注它们各自的结构、相关性质和由此产生的应用。此外,本文还强调了所采用的处理方法如何影响一些多糖的结构、性质以及应用。尽管重点关注食品相关生物聚合物,但本综述面向材料工程师和食品研究人员这一广泛群体。
