A remarkable increment in digestion resistibility was observed in modified mandua starch. The XRD pattern and FTIR spectra revealed the presence of resistant starch after chemical modification. The ...

A well-defined photosensitive polymer whose chromophores were bound with pH-labile cyclic acetal linkages, i.e., poly[5-ethyl-5-methacryloyloxymethyl-2-styryl-[1,3]dioxane] (PEMSD), was synthesized ...

Cassava starch, dolomitic limestone and eucalypt cellulose fibres were used to prepare foam trays that could be used to pack foodstuffs. The influence of the cellulose fibre concentration in the ...

Nanocomposite material based on bacterial cellulose and hydroxyapatite was obtained using the biomimetic mineralization method (imitation of the formation of the mineral component in natural bone ...

Abstract This work investigated the influence of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) in thermoplastic starch/poly (butylene adipate- co -terephthalate) films produced by blown extrusion, using different ...
