11. Effects of plasticizing and crosslinking on coatings based on blends of starch-PVOH and starch-lignin
Abstract : A barrier material is usually needed on a fiber-based food package to protect the packed food from gases and moisture and thus maintain its quality. Barrier materials presently used in food packaging applications are mostly petroleum-based polymers. READ MORE

12. Crystallinity and Morphology of Starch Polymers in Films
Abstract : Starch is a renewable material that can be converted into biodegradable plastic products, or films with excellent oxygen barrier properties. Films of potato starch, amylose, amylopectin and blends thereof were made by solution casting. READ MORE

13. Short-Chain Fatty Acid Starch Stabilized Pickering Emulsions : Design, Properties and Applications
Abstract : Pickering emulsions are emulsions stabilized by solid particles. Particles with optimal dual wettability toward both of the oil and water phases, can be adsorbed onto the interface, thereby providing the stability of the emulsions. READ MORE

14. Effects of Citric Acid on Starch-Based Barrier Coatings
Abstract : With growing environmental concerns, efforts are made to replace petroleum based products with renewable alternatives. This is particularly evident in the packaging industry, where replacing synthetic polymers with renewable materials is of considerable interest. READ MORE

15. The Challenges of Analyzing the Molecular Properties of Starch
Abstract : Both the nutritional and functional properties of starch are directly influenced by the molecular structure of its polymers: amylose and amylopectin. It is therefore important to have reproducible methods for quantifying the molecular size. READ MORE
