Acetylated rice starches films with different levels of amylose: Mechanical, water vapor barrier, thermal, and biodegradability properties
文摘
Low amylose rice starch did not form films with desirable characteristics. Native high and medium amylose starches films had a discontinuous surface. Acetylation of high and medium amylose rice starches improved the films properties. Starch acetylation reduced the tensile strength of the films. Acetylated starches films exhibit more rapid degradation as compared native starches films.
