Sucrose behenate did, however, influence the crystallization mechanism, with
changes observed in the Avrami exponent (n). These changes were also observed in the microstructure
of the fats. Changes in the polymorphic behavior were observed with the addition of sucrose behenate,
such as a possible delay in the a?b transition for interesterified fat, and the initial formation of the b
polymorph in palm oil.
