In their pristine state, starch and lignin are abundant and inexpensive natural polymers
frequently considered green alternatives to oil-based and synthetic polymers. Despite their …

Nitrogen fertilization is one of the most important cultivation practices that affects the eating
quality of rice. During the cooking process, nitrogen fertilizer application in the field changed …

This work aims to develop cornstarch (CS) based films using fructose (F), glycerol (G), and
their combination (FG) as plasticizers with different ratios for food packaging applications …

Highland barley (HB) is a kind of slow-digesting grain. The effects of endogenous non-starch
components on the digestibility of highland barley starch (HBS) are worth exploring. In this …

Previous studies shown that thermoplastic blends of corn starch with some biodegradable
synthetic polymers (poly (ε-caprolactone), cellulose acetate, poly (lactic acid) and ethylene …

In the current study, a series of hybrid composite films were prepared from cornhusk fiber
(CHF) and sugar palm fiber (SPF) through a solution casting technique, using cornstarch …

The current research was designed to determine the effect of various concentrations (0%,
25%, 40%, and 55%) of fructose, sorbitol and urea plasticizers in cornstarch-based films …

The composition and structure of starch are important indicators to evaluate the quality of
rice, but the effect of protein on structural properties of rice has always been controversial. In …

The main aim of this study is to estimate the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of
thermal decomposition of starches by the Coats–Redfern method. This procedure is a …

Plastic packaging products are popular due to having many superior properties but are
harmful to the environment. In that regard, potato starch and sugarcane bagasse fibers were …
