Effect on the Properties of Edible Starch-Based Films by the Incorporation of Additives: A Review

TL;DR: The incorporation of additives in starch-based films is largely explained by its functioning as a filler, as shown via a reduction in water and oxygen permeability, increased thickness, and better mechanical properties as mentioned in this paper .
