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 …

Biodegradable films, with starch as a matrix, were developed and reinforced with wheat and
corn hulls. The effect of the particle size of the filler on the microstructure and mechanical …

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

Starch is the main biopolymer used to develop biodegradable films and coatings, mainly
due to its availability in nature and low cost. Therefore, it is important to determine the …

Despite the growing interest in utilizing starch‐based biodegradable films, their low
mechanical properties generally limit them from being widely used. On the other hand …

Starch blend films of native cassava starch and medium distarch phosphate cassava starch
(crosslinked cassava starch) were prepared by solution casting. The effects of kaolin content …

The study was aimed to improve the properties of starch-based biodegradable films by the
way of polymer blending. The composite films were prepared by incorporating various …

Starch microparticles (SMs) were prepared by delivering ethanol into starch solution.
Chemically modified starch microparticles (CMSs) by reaction with malic acid were obtained …

Starch based films, reinforced by two types of polysaccharide-based crystals, were prepared
and compared. The films were transparent and their surface was smooth in appearance …

This study modified potato starches using hydrothermal treatment, ie, annealing (ANN) and
heatmoisture treatment (HMT). ANN in the ratio (1: 2) of potato starch and water at 60° C is …
