Fragmentation of a viscoelastic food by human mastication [PDF]
, 2010 Fragment-size distributions have been studied experimentally in masticated viscoelastic food (fish sausage).The mastication experiment in seven subjects was examined. We classified the obtained results into two groups, namely, a single lognormal distribution group and a lognormal distribution with exponential tail group.

Tensile and structural properties of natural rubber vulcanizates with different mastication times [PDF]
Polímeros, 2021 Mastication reduced the molecular weight of natural rubber (NR). This would affect the tensile properties and strain-induced crystallization of the rubber vulcanizates due to the structural changes of the rubber molecules.
