Chitosan/modified cassava starch/curcumin (CS/S/Cur) films with a crosslinker were
developed via the solvent casting technique for the application of food packaging. The …

Background Cassava starch, the economically important agricultural commodity in Thailand,
can readily be cast into films. However, the cassava starch film is brittle and weak, leading to …

This study investigated the influence of grape stalk (GS) from the Bordo grape variety (Vittis
labrusca L.) as a reinforcing agent, and pink pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi) extract …

Corona treatment (CT), a surface treatment widely used in the plastic industry, can be used
to alter the properties of cassava starch. In the present work, CT was performed on dry …

Composite materials from natural and biodegradable resources represent attractive
alternatives for eco-friendly packaging applications. Herein, starch (S) films incorporated …

Blending of cassava starch and whey protein isolate (WPI) films containing plant extracts
showed modified properties and release behaviors. Effects of native starch (NS) and …

Biodegradable films were prepared based on cassava starch (CS) and poly (vinyl
alcohol)(PVA). To increase its tensile strength and flexibility, CS (20–60 wt%) was blended …

Films based on cassava starch have been widely used for fruit coating; however, it is
necessary to incorporate other polymers in order to improve mechanical properties, once …

Chitosan-coated cassava starch films were prepared. In this study, chitosan coating
solutions varying from 1 to 4wt% were coated onto the free starch films containing 2, 3, 4, 5 …

Edible and active packaging are attractive for use in food packaging applications due to their
functionality and sustainability. This research developed new antioxidant active food …
