STABILISING BEVERAGES

摘要

A process for stabilising a beverage against haze formation comprises treating the beverage with a stabilising agent comprising a particulate silica having a mean pore diameter of at least 6 nm and which has been modified by interaction with a water-soluble polymer having pendant pyrrolidone groups, the polymer being present on the silica in an amount from 5 to 35 per cent by weight with respect to anhydrous weight of silica.
