Development of Biodegradable Films Based on Chitosan/Glycerol Blends Suitable for Biomedical Applications
(Omics International, 2016-12)
In the present work, chitosan/glycerol blends were used to prepare biodegradable films with potential applicationin dermal treatment. While the presence of glycerol gives the hydrating effect, the chitosan characteristics ...
Controlled release on sand bed columns and biodegradability in soil of chitosan: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose films
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2019-05)
The main purpose of this work is to prepare and characterize films based on chitosan (Q) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) blends to achieve adequate properties to be used as coating of conventional fertilizers to ...
Effect of nanoclay addition on the biodegradability and performance of starch-based nanocomposites as mulch films
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2019-06-07)
The biodegradation and performance of potential agricultural mulch films prepared from native and oxidized corn starch nanocomposites with chitosan-modified bentonite were studied under simulated soil test conditions. ...
Development of innovative biodegradable films based on biomass of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
Biodegradable alternatives to petroleum-based polymers are being developed for food packaging. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been widely used for the production of fermented beverages and leavened foods. In this work, the ...
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable eco-films based onstarch?glycerol with citric acid as crosslinking agent
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable starch-glycerol based films were obtained using citric acid (CA) as crosslinking agent at 75 °C. This material allowed decreasing water vapor permeability (WVP) more than 35%, remained ...
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable eco-films based on starch-glycerol with citric acid as crosslinking agent
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable starch-glycerol based films were obtained using citric acid (CA) as crosslinking agent at 75 °C. This material allowed decreasing water vapor permeability (WVP) more than 35%, remained ...
Relationship between structure and properties of modified potato starch biodegradable films
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2006-09)
Potato starch was gelatinized in the presence of water and varying amounts of glycerol at 90°C. Starch/ glycerol films were prepared by casting with water. The addition of glycerol produces a decrease in the crystallinity ...
Tensile properties, barrier properties, and biodegradation in soil of compression-Molded gelatin-dialdehyde starch films
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2009-05)
ABSTRACT: Glycerol (Gly)-plasticized gelatin (Ge) films crosslinked with dialdehyde starch (DAS) as environmentally friendly crosslinking agent were successfully produced by compression molding, demonstrating the capacity ...
Characterization of biodegradable/non-compostable films made from cellulose acetate/corn starch blends processed under reactive extrusion conditions
(Elsevier, 2019-04)
The manufacture of food packaging materials from food hydrocolloids has been widely studied during the last decades and multiple alternatives have been investigated, with research mainly focusing on improving the physicochemical ...
Starch-Pectin Films Obtained By Extrusion And Compression Molding
(Editorial Management System, 2019-06)
Starch and pectin are biopolymers that can achieve thermoplastic properties and can be processed through extrusion and thermos-compression to obtain edible films. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of starch-pectin ...
