Ice Cream Report 1. INTRODUCTION Ice cream is a complex colloidal system‚ which consists of air bubbles‚ ice crystals and fat globules. There are many formulation and [processing factors that influence the quality of ice cream. Stabilizer is such a factor‚ the function of stabilizer is to improve air incorporation‚ give body and texture‚ control meltdown of the ice cream(Keeney 1982).The aim of this report describes the procedure of manufacturing ice cream‚ and discuss what the

be ready when a crusty film begins to form on top. What you’re left with is a more concentrated solution of sodium acetate. (You may notice that your solution is slightly yellowish or brownish.) * As the solution boils down‚ sodium acetate crystals will be left sticking along the inside of the pot. Don’t mix them back into the solution; you’ll need them later‚ so use a spoon to gather and save them separately. * Don’t let the film on top of your solution become thick or developed; this

recrystallization‚ which relies on the different solubilities of solutes in a solvent. Compounds‚ which are less soluble‚ will crystallize first. The crystallization process itself helps in the purification because as the crystals form‚ they select the correct molecules‚ which fit into the crystal lattice and ignore the wrong molecules. This is of course not a perfect process‚ but it does increase the purity of the final product. The solubility of the compound in the solvent used for recrystallization is important

is‚ and more importantly‚ how it affects the properties of plastics. Most people are familiar with crystals only because of salt and perhaps growing crystals as part of a school science project. Therefore‚ talking about crystals and plastics together is a new concept to many people. In reality‚ polymers are not like salt‚ which is totally crystalline‚ but are semi-crystalline. Unlike crystals like salt‚ polymers have only short-range order and a much looser organization. Crystallinity is one

(drinking) water. In order to evaluate this effectiveness‚ the yield and purity of only the ice product is investigated before and after a number of wash cycles. A 1000g solution of 5 wt% CuSO4 underwent crystallization for one hour with the use of ice crystal seeding and the agitation of a stirrer at 500rpm. After the crystallization process‚ the mass of the ice product and filtrate were recorded. The ice product was then washed with de-ionised water under Buchner vacuum filtration‚ before the masses

point was close to 100°C‚ the boiling point of water. A few milliliters of hot solution was removed from the flask with a disposable pipette and placed in a test tube. The test tube was set aside to cool and produce crystals. The color and melting point of the mini batch of crystals were used to assess the effectiveness of activated carbon treatment of the main batch to remove the colored impurities (vide infra). The temperature of the main batch of the reaction mixture in the Erlenmeyer flask

beaker that contained the filtrate and the filtrate was undisturbed until it had cooled to room temperature and when no more crystals had formed. 4. The beaker was placed in an ice-water bath for 10 minutes. 5. The crystals were collected by using a Hirsch funnel by vacuum filtration. The filter cake was then washed with 2 small portions of 0.5mL of cold water. The crystals were pressed dry as possible on the funnel with a spatula. 6. The melting point of recrystallized benzoic acid was determined
