Volatile Compounds in Red Wines Processed on an Industrial Scale by Short Pre-fermentative Cold Maceration
2012
Nero d’Avola and Shiraz grapes were subjected to pre-fermentative cold maceration at 4°C for about 24 h in industrial winemaking, in order to evaluate the effects of the pre-treatment on aroma profile. The volatile compounds were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and grouped into 14 chemical families 4 and 9 months after bottling. Principal components analysis (PCA) plots of the volatile compounds showed clear separation among wines from the Shiraz and Nero d’Avola varieties. For instance, Shiraz wines were characterized along the PC1 axe by esters of organic acids, norisoprenoids and C6 alcohols, while Nero d’Avola wines were characterized by acetates and monoterpenic oxid…
Rheological Behaviour, Mechanical Properties and Processability of Biodegradable Polymer Systems for Film Blowing
2017
Films for agricultural or packaging applications are typically made of low density polyethylene (LDPE). They are produced through the film blowing process, which requires the use of polymers with suitable rheological properties. Furthermore, the short shelf-life which is often related to many packed products leads to huge amounts of plastic-based wastes. This suggests the use of biodegradable and/or compostable polymers in replacement for traditional ones. To this regard, only few data exist on the rheological properties of biodegradable polymers undergoing film blowing processing. In this work, a detailed investigation on the rheological, mechanical and processability behaviour of some bio…
