The development of effective heavy metal adsorbents has always been the goal of environmentalists. Pectin/activated carbon microspheres (P/ACs) were prepared through simple gelation without chemical crosslinking and utilized for adsorption of Pb. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the addition of activated carbon increased the porosity of the microsphere.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on modifying rice starch using octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) and dynamic high-pressure microfluidization (DHPM).
  • DHPM pretreatment improves the degree of substitution, alters the starch's morphology and crystallinity, leading to enhanced peak viscosity and lower pasting temperature.
  • The results indicate that DHPM treatment makes starch more suitable for chemical modifications, improving its emulsifying properties and stability.
