Impact of aging on the phase behavior of cocoa butter and copra oil blends
Aging of cocoa butter (CB)/copra oil (CO) binary blends (noted CB/CO) is investigated through a multi-technique approach. Indeed, the phase behavior of non-aged and 30 days-aged cocoa butter/copra oil binary blends (CB/CO) at 4°C is studied, using a combination of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), D...

description | Aging of cocoa butter (CB)/copra oil (CO) binary blends (noted CB/CO) is investigated through a multi-technique approach. Indeed, the phase behavior of non-aged and 30 days-aged cocoa butter/copra oil binary blends (CB/CO) at 4°C is studied, using a combination of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). During subsequent heating from 4°C to 40°C, solid fat content depression between 15°C and 20°C is shown with NMR, with the most pronounced occurring at two different compositions for the non-aged (60% CO addition in CB) and for the 30 days-aged mixtures (80% CO addition in CB). In agreement, DSC exposes melting enthalpy and melting temperature depression for the aged-blend 80/20 CB/CO. XRD highlights fat interactions at the nanoscopic scale and allows the precise attribution of polymorphic transitions perceived with DSC. The melt-mediated transformation of CB crystals from β'2-2L to β2-3L is shown in non-aged blends containing 0% to 10% of CO in CB, whereas it is shown to occur in blends containing 0% to 60% CO in CB for the 30 days aged-blends. As a result of this study, all the results obtained with the various methods are used to build the very first complete pseudo-phase diagram of 4°C-aged CB/CO blends, it highlights the shift of the eutectic points after 30 days of storage. We think that such a fundamental work can bring new understanding of a well-known issue as encountered in chocolate-based products storage. |
