The remaining fibrous residue of cassava starch extraction was characterized and used as
film filler in order to obtain an enhanced fully biodegradable starch-based composite. Film …

Acid hydrolysis is a key chemical treatment process that can significantly improve the
functional and structural properties of starch without altering its granular morphology. In this …

Regarding the growing interest in the development of biodegradable films from renewable
sources, this work is focused on the utilization of cassava roots bagasse as a natural filler of …

A starch-based composite film was prepared by using fibrous residual of starch extraction
(cassava bagasse) as filler. Composite films were prepared through casting technique using …

Studies were carried out to produce biodegradable films from cassava starch. Two
alternatives were investigated. In the first, films were obtained by starch gelatinization …

The objectives of this work were to produce films based on cassava starch reinforced with
soybean hulls (SH) or microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) obtained from SH by reactive …

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

Cassava bagasse, a high-fiber coproduct of cassava starch processing, was used to
produce lignocellulose nanofibers (LCNF) to apply as reinforcement in cassava starch films …

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 …

Cellulose nanofibers were extracted from sisal and incorporated at different concentrations
(0–5%) into cassava starch to produce nanocomposites. Films' morphology, thickness …
