Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of acid type for chitosan dissolution on the characteristics and biodegradability of cornstarch/chitosan based films
TL;DR: Mechanical properties analyses showed that the films prepared by using acetic acid presented higher rigidity and lower deformation, giving higher values of Young's Modulus and a smaller percentage of elongation, in comparison to the films fabricated with lactic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of acid type and glutaraldehyde crosslinking in the physicochemical and mechanical properties and biodegradability of chitosan films
Julia Menegotto Frick Pavoni,Nicole Zagonel dos Santos,Izabelly Cassia May,Liliane Damaris Pollo,Isabel Cristina Tessaro +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of different acids and the crosslinking on the characteristics and biodegradability of chitosan films was evaluated through thickness, swelling degree, mechanical and thermal properties, chemical structure and the glutaraldehyde release.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of chitosan addition on the properties of films prepared with corn and cassava starches
Cláudia Leites Luchese,Julia Menegotto Frick Pavoni,Nicole Zagonel dos Santos,Luci Kelin de Menezes Quines,Liliane Damaris Pollo,Jordana Corralo Spada,Isabel Cristina Tessaro +6 more
TL;DR: The antimicrobial activity of the corn starch-based films containing chitosan was confirmed, and these films have potential for development of active packaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
