Wheat Gluten Husk

Wheat gluten is a protein composite found in foods processed from wheat and related grain species, including barley and rye. WG gives elasticity to dough, helping it rise and keep its shape and often gives the final product a chewy texture. WG may also 

The aqueous acetic acid or ammonia used is flashed off during the drying step, and the powdered material retains typical vital gluten characteristics). pH manipulation may thus provide interesting property variations in wheat gluten containing foods [15].

Chapter 5 summarizes the investigation of lignocellulosic flax fiber-based reinforcement requirements to obtain structural and complex shape polymer composites. This chapter discusses in detail the possibility of forming complex shape structural composites which are highly desirable for advanced applications. Chapter 7 focuses on the structure and properties of cellulose-based starch polymer composites, while Chapter 8 focuses on the spectroscopic analysis of rice husk and wheat gluten husk-based polymer composites using computational chemistry. Chapter 9 summarizes the processing, characterization and properties of oil palm fiber-reinforced polymer composites. In this chapter, the use of oil palm as reinforcement in different polymer matrices such as natural rubber, polypropylene, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, phenol formaldehyde, polystyrene, epoxy and LLDPE is discussed. Chapter 10 also focuses on...

Figure 8.13 shows the rice husk/glibenclamide and wheat gluten husk/glibenclamide MESP, where can be observed that the values are very similar at lignocellulosic materials (see Figure 8.8). The negative regions were appreciated at OH groups (C-OH bonds). The absorption of the glibenclamide can be seen mainly in to the rice husk by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the OH and NH, respectively.
