Abstract
⺠We submitted native and hydrolyzed babassu flour to TG and DSC analysis to study the thermal behavior of its components. ⺠Samples were heated up to 600 °C. ⺠Thermogravimetry showed same results for moisture and ash official analyses. ⺠Hydrolysis process decreased the thermal degradation as well as gelatinization temperatures confirming changes in the starch granules surface.
