Characterization of Chickpea Seed Oil and Its Structuring Into Oleogels Using Rice Bran Wax: A Study on the Physicochemical, Thermal, Textural, and Antioxidant Properties for Potential Use in Health‐Conscious and Sustainable Food Products

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Higher rice bran wax ratios produced firmer, more stable oleogels. Lower wax concentrations resulted in weak structuring and phase separation. Oil‐binding capacity increased noticeably with RBW content. Thermal and textural properties improved in proportion to wax concentration.
