All proteins coagulate with heat (i think). It's in part what causes fish to seize up, and chicken breast to get too tough, when too much heat is applied too quickly.
I looked for an explanation of this online, and found a marvelous "lesson plan download" on the Utah Education Network site. When I tried to copy the link, the only option it gave was to download the document.
I copied it to a Google Doc, posted on my Google Drive, here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NIclq5Pt_Ws0qsdIRKg49CodppLTKLcI2bp_0SxJEt4/edit?usp=sharing
You wanted science? Well, here's some science! Quite interesting and nicely drafted, too, I might add. Thank you, Utah Education Network! ;o)
Vegans often use flax seed meal as an egg replacement. One tablespoon of flaxseed meal to three tablespoons of water. Let sit for 5 minutes before using. I think chia seed gel might work also, but have never tried it.
