Polysaccharide is often used as a low-cost renewable source for the manufacture of films.
Starch films present appropriate mechanical and oxygen barrier properties, but are sensitive …

Starch-based films have promising application on food packaging, because of their
environmental appeal, low cost, flexibility and transparency. Nevertheless, their mechanical …

The effects of saturated fatty acids at a concentration of 1.5% on the mechanical and barrier
properties of starch‐based films were evaluated in films prepared with two concentrations of …

The effect on water vapour permeability (WVP) and mechanical properties of an addition of
various amounts of an acetylated monoglyceride (Acetem) to native potato starch (NPS) …

Starch films are very hygroscopic and undergo crystallization during processing and
storage. In this work, fatty acids (SA, PA and OA) were incorporated into starch films …

Water transport in edible films of starch based products is a complex phenomenon due to
the strong interaction of sorbed water molecules with polymeric structure of starch. Water …

To identify the significant contribution of intermolecular hydrogen bonds of starch molecules
to the film structure formation, pH of film‐forming solutions was adjusted and also various …

To reduce the hygroscopic character of biodegradable starch-based films, rapeseed oil was
incorporated by lamination (starch-oil-starch 3-layers technique). The lipid lamination …

Biodegradable starch-based film has been widely used as alternative to packaging derived
from fossil sources. The composition, structural and morphological properties of starch …

Biodegradable films based on starches have poor mechanical and barrier properties,
limiting their applications as a food packaging material. The combination of two or more …
