Lignin conveys several important and useful characteristics to starch films depending on the
lignin MW, extraction procedure, and lignin botanical source. In this study, lignin was …

A hybrid composite was prepared from cassava bagasse (CB) and sugar palm fiber (SPF)
using casting technique with cassava starch (CS) as matrix and fructose as a plasticizer …

Packaging materials play an essential role in the preservation and marketing of food and
other products. To improve their conservation capacity, antimicrobial agents that inhibit …

Starch obtained from lotus seed was physically modified through heat-moisture treatment to
develop the starch-based biopolymer films. Three different types of films: native lotus seed …

Cellulosic fibres from coffee (CF) and rice (RF) husks have been obtained applying chemical
treatments and characterized as to their microstructure and thermal behaviour. These …

Carboxymethyl cellulose nanocrystals (N-CMCs) were produced by carboxymethylation of
cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) that derived from sweet potato residue. Transmission …

The main purpose of the current study was to propose innovative composite films based on
a corn starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blend (starch: PVA 40: 60) and loaded with 3 different …

Starches polymeric films offer several advantages for the replacement of synthetic polymers
due to their biodegradability, non-toxicity, availability and low cost. However, the high …

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 …

Cotton linters were dissolved in aq.(8% LiOH+ 15% urea) that was pre-cooled to− 12.5° C.
Using this solution cellulose gel films were prepared by regeneration method with ethyl …
