Physical properties of modified Désirée potato starch-chitosan edible films
The present study investigated the physical properties of edible films prepared from a modified Désirée potato starch using the heat moisture treatment (HMT) method reinforced with chitosan (1, 2, 3, 4, 5%, w/w) as bioactive materials for biodegradable packaging. The edible films displayed good chem...

Summary: | The present study investigated the physical properties of edible films prepared from a modified Désirée potato starch using the heat moisture treatment (HMT) method reinforced with chitosan (1, 2, 3, 4, 5%, w/w) as bioactive materials for biodegradable packaging. The edible films displayed good chemical characteristics in all chitosan concentrations in terms of elongation, solubility, swelling rate and proper thickness. Incorporation of chitosan into the edible films was successful as indicated from the IR spectrum. According to the findings, the modified Désirée potato starch-chitosan edible films might withstand further processing in the production of biodegradable packaging. |
