Abstract:
We studied spiral crack formation in dried β-lactoglobulin films. The spirals result from simultaneous crack propagation and fragment detachment and the final pattern can be mathematically described by a logarithmic spiral equation. Crack patterns were investigated under different β-lactoglobulin and plasticizer concentrations of the initial solution used for film preparation. Spiral crack patterns occur in films over the entire tested concentration range up to cm = 250 mg/mL, but disappear when...     »
