Plasticized hydroxypropyl cassava thermoplastic starch (TPS) with glycerol was blended
with polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) via blown-film extrusion. Effects of …

Biodegradable films from ahipa, cassava and corn native starches were developed by
casting method and their physicochemical, mechanical and barrier properties were …

Starch‐based biodegradable films were prepared by using solution‐casting method and
reinforced by agricultural residues [apricot and walnut shell (APS and WNS) powder]. The …

This work aimed to characterize the starch from arracacha at two phenological stages (S1:
twelve months and S2: fourteen months) and assess its potential use blended with polylactic …

The effect of the addition of cassava thermoplastic starch on the general properties and the
photodegradation behavior of poly (L-lactic acid)(PLLA) was evaluated by blending PLLA …

The use of starch based films as a potential alternative choice to petroleum derived plastics
is imperative for environmental waste management. This study presents a new biopolymer …

Biodegradable films from tapioca starch (TPS) were formed by tape casting. The impact of
glycerol (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) on the mechanical properties was investigated. The increase …

Pure starch like PLA is an outstanding substitute to prepare packaging film, nevertheless,
because of its greater hydrophilicity, mixing it with other starch become essential. Cassava is …

The use of native starch as a thermoplastic polymer is limited by its fragility and high water
absorption. Due to the presence of several hydroxyl groups in its structure, water acts as a …

Studies of renewable polymers have highlighted starch's role to replace petroleum-based
components to produce biodegradable films with plastic-like qualities. In this study, the …
