Complex Aqueous Systems at Subzero Temperatures

  • Chapter
Properties of Water in Foods

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 90))

Abstract

The subzero temperature behaviour of complex aqueous systems, whether of homogeneous or heterogeneous nature, is determined by two types of factors : those due to the low temperature per se and those due to freezing, i.e. the separation of ice as a pure phase. Perhaps a third factor should be added : the precipitation or crystallization of some other component in the mixture, such as a salt.
