has gloss | (noun) the separation of liquid from a gel that is caused by contraction (as in cheese making) synaeresis, syneresis |
has gloss | eng: Syneresis (also spelled synæresis or synaeresis), in chemistry, is the extraction or expulsion of a liquid from a gel, as when lymph drains from a contracting clot of blood. Another example of syneresis is the collection of whey on the surface of yogurt. Syneresis can also be observed when the amount of diluent in a swollen polymer exceeds the solubility limit as the temperature changes. A household example of this is the counter intuitive expulsion of water from dry gelatin when the temperature increases. Syneresis has also been proposed as the mechanism of formation of the amorphous silicate composing the frustule of diatoms |
