It was found that high-fat coconut milk with coconut
sugar possessed pseudoplastic or shear-thinning behavior.
Similar trends were observed for different sets of data.
Power law model could be used to fit the data with high
correlation (R2 = 0.996–0.998). As the shear rate increased,
the particle–particle interaction was deformed and finally
disrupted which resulted in the size reduction of the flocs
and led to a decrease in viscosity (McClements, 1999).
The values of the consistency index (K) and flow behavior
index (n) obtained from the curve fitting are given
