摘要:
Bitter components, such as limonin, may be effectively removed from citrus juices, particularly navel orange juices, by contacting the juices with an adsorbent resin. The adsorbent resin is derived from a copolymer of a monoethylenically unsaturated monomer and a crosslinking monomer, where the copolymer has been post-crosslinked in the swollen state in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst and functionalized with hydrophilic groups. Preferably, the copolymers are styrene and divinylbenzene.
摘要:
A process for decolorizing an aqueous sugar solution by contacting the solution with an absorbent resin, wherein the adsorbent resin is a macroporous copolymer being post-crosslinked in a swollen state in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst and functionalized with hydrophilic groups prior to contact with the aqueous sugar solution.
摘要:
Acids can be removed from fruit juices by treating the juice with a filter apparatus comprising a pre-coat cake containing a functionally effective amount of weak base resin particulates. The sizes of the particulates are such that substantially all of said particulates range from about -50 to about -100 mesh. The weak base resin is most desirably one wherein the amount of strong base functionalities are less than about 5 percent, based on the total number of strong and weak base functionalities. Juices treated using the pre-coat cake taste sweet and the essential character thereof is not altered.
