Synergistic effects in these polymeric mixtures strongly affected the physical properties of the gel structure. The transmitted light intensities, I-tr, versus temperature variations were investigated during the gelation and liquefaction processes. Slight synergistic peaks were detected in gel-sol and sol-gel transition temperatures for high kappa-carrageenan/LBG ratios (approx. 80/2). Moreover, apparent synergistic peaks were observed in gel-sol and sol-gel transition activation energies for the mixtures approximately with the ratios of 80/10. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
