Present study developed a strength analysis for relaxation time (τ) in characterizing physicochemical properties and structural transformation of freeze-dried honey/whey protein isolate (H/WPI) and honey/maltodextrin (H/MD) models based on water sorption, time-dependent crystallization, glass transition, and α-relaxation at various water activities (0.11aw to 0.76aw) and 25 °C. Water sorption data of two models explained WPI was a more effectiveness drying stabilizer than MD as H/WPI model owned higher monolayer water content. Crystallization was observed in prepared models with drying-aids content below 50% of mass ratios at water activity above 0.44aw and 25 °C, whereas the extent of crystallization and structural collapse were inhibited by WPI and MD addition based on sorption isotherms. Glass transition temperature, α-relaxation temperature, and τ for two models were composition-dependent and altered by water, WPI, and MD at water activity below 0.44aw. According to strength analysis of τ, the S for H/WPI and H/MD models was affected by drying-aids and could give a quantitative measure to estimate compositional effects on τ. Moreover, a S-involved state diagram was established to determine the critical parameters (water content and S) for controlling structural transformation of honey powder models during production and storage, i.e., collapse and stickiness.
