Reinforcement of Thermoplastic Corn Starch with Crosslinked Starch/Chitosan Microparticles [PDF]

Polymers, 2018
Microparticles of corn starch and chitosan crosslinked with glutaraldehyde, produced by the solvent exchange technique, are studied as reinforcement fillers for thermoplastic corn starch plasticized with glycerol. The presence of 10% w/w chitosan in the microparticles is shown to be essential to guaranteeing effective crosslinking, as demonstrated by ...

The influence of dry heat treatment on the structure and performance of thermoplastic starch with different amylose content

Industrial Crops and Products
Dry heat treatment (DHT) was used to physically modify high-amylose starch, normal starch, and waxy starch, and the three modified starches were then prepared into thermoplastic starch (TPS) via the melting method.

Biopolymer‐Coated Paper Composites for Sustainable Packaging

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional plastic packaging, though dominant in food and flexible applications, poses serious environmental concerns due to its persistence and limited recyclability. To address this challenge, this study develops bio‐based coated paper composites as sustainable alternatives. Paper, while biodegradable, lacks adequate barrier properties. To
