The oil batter was mainly defined by the fact that jG*j was stable
up to 85 C, with only a very small decrease in jG*j values observed
at 45 C. At 85 C, the increase in jG*j associated with the onset of
the starch gelatinization process appears. Values of tand decreased
up to 42 C, then remained stable up to 50 C, subsequently
continuing to decrease up to around 80 C. This decrease in the
values of tand denotes a progressive increase in the viscoelasticity
of the system as the temperature rises.
