Water-Soluble Polymer Applications in Foods provides a comprehensive and timely overview of novel aspects of their use in food products.

Features the use of hydrocolloids:

• For texturization
• As adhesives within food products
• As coatings in products
• For flavor encapsulation

Water-soluble polymers are commonly used for many traditional applications in food industry fields, including food science, agriculture, ceramics, paper and ink technology, explosives and the textiles.

Water-Soluble Polymer Applications in Foods is a valuable resource for food scientists, food engineering personnel, nutritionists involved in product formulation, and university libraries and research entities where food science and technology are studied.
