  • Title: Effect of dual modification on properties of biodegradable crosslinked-oxidized starch and oxidized-crosslinked starch films.
    Author: Tanetrungroj Y, Prachayawarakorn J.
    Journal: Int J Biol Macromol; 2018 Dec; 120(Pt A):1240-1246. PubMed ID: 30171956.
    Abstract:
    Due to poor properties of biodegradable native starch (NS) film; in this work, dual-modified starch films i.e. crosslinked-oxidized starch (C-OS) and oxidized-crosslinked starch (O-CS) films were prepared and compared to single-modified starch i.e. crosslinked starch (CS) and oxidized starch (OS) films. All modified starch films were oxidized and crosslinked using hydrogen peroxide and boric acid by casting technique. Degree of crystallinity and swelling behavior of both dual-modified starch films were found to decrease. Moreover, O-CS film showed smoother fractured morphology than C-OS and NS films. Both C-OS and O-CS films presented not only high stress at maximum load and Young's modulus but also high strain at maximum load, as compared to single-modified film. Furthermore, water vapor permeability, thermal property and biodegradability of all modified films were also studied.
