Flow of Semi-Solid Foods over Inclined Packaging Surfaces as an Index of Traction

CODEN: JTEVAB

Abstract

A modified tilted plane procedure was evaluated for characterizing the traction property of fluid or semi-solid foods in contact with packaging surfaces. The method was shown to be a useful technique as demonstrated by studying the flow of tomato sauce, salad dressing, and mustard paste over five commonly used polymeric packaging film surfaces.
