Abstract
The rheology of chestnut starch paste has been studied. The results showed that the starch paste was a non Newtonian flow system, it had the pseudoplastic and the shear thinning characteristics. At the same temperature, the shear stress was higher when the shear rate increased, meanwhile shear stress was reduced while the temperature was increased with the same shear velocity. The shear stability of chestnut starch was higher than that of the corn starch, but lower than that of the tapioca starch.
