Biodegradable films from ahipa, cassava and corn native starches were developed by casting method and their physicochemical, mechanical and barrier properties were analyzed taking into account the different starch botanical ...

Biocomposites films based on thermoplastic corn starch (TPS) containing 0.5% w/w fibrous residue from Pachyrhizus ahipa starchextraction(PASR) were obtainedbymelt-mixing andcompressionmolding. PASR ismainly constituted by ...

Advances in bio-based composite materials offer potential opportunities for economic revalorization of agroindustrial residues such as starchy tubers peels and bagasse. In this work, cassava and ahipa peels and bagasse are ...
