چکیده

A galactomanana de Prosopis juliflora (PJ) foi obtida por extração em água, a 50 °C, a partir de sementes moídas. As suas características estruturais e as propriedades em solução foram comparadas com as de uma amostra comercial de goma guar (GG). Após degradação parcial, as amostras resultantes foram submetidas à espectroscopia de C RMN. As razões manose/galactose de PJ (M/G = 1,64) e de GG (M/G = 1,85) foram determinadas a partir das áreas relativas aos picos atribuídos a C-1. A expansão das linhas do C-4 revelaram diferenças na estrutura fina das duas galactomananas. A viscosidade intrínseca determinada para a amostra de GG, [η] = 10,3 dL g, foi ligeiramente maior do que a determinada para a PJ, [η] = 9,4 dL g. Experimentos dinâmicos realizados nas mesmas concentrações mostraram comportamentos viscoelásticos similares para as duas gomas. Nenhum aumento no módulo de armazenamento (G′) foi observado para misturas κ-carragenana/PJ em 0,1 mol L KCl em uma concentração total de 1,0 g L, em relação à κ-carragenana sozinha. Géis fortes, obtidos pela mistura de κ-carragenana e PJ ou GG em 0,25 mol L KCl em uma concentração total de 10 g L apresentaram propriedades mecânicas similares.
