Hydrophilic polyfructose chains

DDC) and hydrophilic polyfructose chains (PFC), that is, polyfructose loops of the INUTEC SPl molecules. According to Equation 6.1 the total film thickness (h) differs from the equivalent film thickness (h, ) that is experimentally measured, the difference being hu,corr = 2hi(Wj —1)/(W2—1) [38]. A value of 1.40 is taken for Uj (between 1.42 for bulk dodecane and 1.38 for supersaturated aqueous solutions of inulin [44]). The value of hi is chosen to be 5 nm, based on data from atomic force microscopy and dynamic light scattering measurements [11, 13] h , corr = 12 0.7nm has been obtained.
