Puffed rice

“the peripheral thin layer formed during parboiling of rice expanded and enveloped the puffed rice kernel and prevented it from bursting”

peripheral thin layer → expanded and enveloped → puffed rice kernel

“The dry cakes' engineering stress–strain relationships all had a sigmoid shape characteristic to solid cellular materials.”

puffed rice cakes → have → sigmoid shape characteristic to solid cellular materials

“the resulting cellular expansion, creating many void spaces and air vacuoles, imparted a highly porous and expanded structure to the puffed rice kernel”

puffed rice kernel → imparted → highly porous and expanded structure

“Transverse sections of puffed rice kernels revealed the various stages of gelatinized starch cells expansion due to high pressure steam formed inside the rice kernel during the high temperature short time treatment for puffing”

puffed rice kernels → revealed → various stages of gelatinized starch cells expansion
