Effects of Salts on Crystallization Kinetics and Rheological Behavior of Concentrated α,α-Trehalose Solutions

The effect of addition of CaCl2 · 2H2O and MgCl2 · 6H2O on crystallization kinetics and the rheological behavior of a 70% trehalose solution was studied by polarized light microscopy and dynamic oscillatory rheometry. Salts caused a delay on nucleation with induction times for crystallization longer...
