Physical Properties of Different Cultivar Local Glutinous rice (susu and siding) and Commercial Thai Cultivar

Glutinous rice (Oryza Sativa var. glutinosa) is known as waxy or sticky and it has an opaque small size grain cultivar distinct from common white rice. In outlining the equipment for processing, storage, sorting, sizing other post-harvest particular of their physical properties important. Two different local glutinous susu siding were evaluated in this study. For cultivar, average length, width, thickness 6.63mm, 1.88mm, 1.50mm respectively. The corresponding values 6.24mm, 1.98mm, 1.48mm cultivar. aspect ratio, sphericity, volume, surface area, bulk density, true porosity, 1000 weight kernel, angle repose 0.28, 0.40%, 9.81mm3, 19.02mm2, 800.54 kg/m3, 1500.36 46.65%, 18.88g, 39.45°. Thecorresponding 0.32, 0.42%, 10.25mm3, 19.45mm2, 772.73 1229.51 37.15%, 17.04g 40.08° Thus, objective study to compare two cultivars aid designing processing equipment.
