TLDR
Granule swelling of 8% suspension of crosslinked maize starch when subjected to heating to 70,75,80,85 and 90 °C was more pronounced at higher temperatures eventually approaching equilibrium with the swelling ratio decreasing with increase in extent of crosslink.

Characterization of starch-water interactions and their effects on two key functional properties: starch gelatinization and retrogradation

TL;DR: In this paper, water content plays a critical role in the structure function capacity of starches, which depend on starch granules capacity to adsorb water and disperse in aqueous media.

The influence of bath and probe sonication on the physicochemical and microstructural properties of wheat starch.

TL;DR: The SEM images showed significant and nonuniform impact of ultrasound on the structure of starch granules in which some granules remained almost smooth, but some showed high irregular surfaces or even in some cases structure collapse.

Tortuosity-porosity relation in porous media flow

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the finite-size, slow relaxation and discretization errors, which were ignored in previous studies, may cause significant underestimation of tortuosity.
