“…Regardless of the plasticizer type, the solubility of plasticized SPS films in water increased with increased plasticizer concentration. Similar trend was reported in previous studies, regarding the effect of plasticizer concentration on biodegradable film solubility in water (Aguirre et al 2013;Chiumarelli and Hubinger 2014;Maran et al 2013). Due to the hydrophilic nature of plasticizers (particularly polyols), they perform essential role in weakening the interaction between polymer molecular chains, increasing the free space volumes between the chains.…”

In this study, sugar palm starch (SPS) films were developed using glycerol (G), sorbitol (S) or their combination (GS) as plasticizers at the ratio of 15, 30 and 45 (wt)% using casting technique. The addition of plasticizers to SPS film-forming solutions helped to overcome the brittle and fragile nature of unplasticized SPS films. Increased plasticizer concentration resulted to an increase in film thickness, moisture content and solubility. On the contrary, density and water absorption of plasticized films decreased with increasing plasticizer concentration. Raising the plasticizer content from 15 to 45 % showed less effect on the moisture content and water absorption of S-plasticized films. Films containing glycerol and glycerol-sorbitol plasticizer (G, and GS) demonstrated higher moisture content, solubility and water absorption capacity compared to S-plasticized films. The results obtained in this study showed that plasticizer type and concentration significantly improves film properties and enhances their suitability for food packaging applications.

Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SC-CO 2 ) of total anthocyanin and phenolic compounds from jamun fruits was investigated using three factors at three levels Box-Behnken response surface design. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of three independent variables (pressure, temperature and co-solvent flow rate) on the maximum extraction yield of anthocyanin and phenolic compounds from jamun fruits. From the experimental data, second order polynomial mathematical models were developed with high coefficient of determination values (R 2 >0.98). From response surface plots, pressure, temperature and co-solvent flow rate exhibited independent and interactive effects on the extraction yields. Pressure of 162 bar, extraction temperature at 50°C and co-solvent flow rate of 2.0 g/min was identified as optimal conditions. Under these optimal conditions, the experimental value agreed well with the predicted values and indicates the suitability of developed models.

“…Thus, starch has attracted a great deal of interest as a potential alternative to conventional plastics for packaging applications. Several studies have investigated the development and characterization of starch based films from corn [4,[6][7][8], potato [9][10][11][12][13], cassava [14][15][16][17][18][19][20], banana [21], yam [22,23], pea [1], sago [24][25][26], rice [27][28][29][30], maize [31][32][33][34], Kudzu [35] and agar [36][37][38][39]. According to Sahari et al [40] sugar palm starch is also a potential biopolymer material for making biodegradable films.…”

The use of starch based films as a potential alternative choice to petroleum derived plastics is imperative for environmental waste management. This study presents a new biopolymer (sugar palm starch) for the preparation of biodegradable packaging films using a solution casting technique. The effect of different plasticizer types (glycerol (G), sorbitol (S) and glycerol-sorbitol (GS) combination) with varying concentrations (0, 15, 30 and 45, w/w%) on the tensile, thermal and barrier properties of sugar palm starch (SPS) films was evaluated. Regardless of plasticizer types, the tensile strength of plasticized SPS films decreased, whereas their elongation at break (E%) increased as the plasticizer concentrations were raised. However, the E% for G and GS-plasticized films significantly decreased at a higher plasticizer concentration (45% w/w) due to the anti-plasticization effect , irrespective of plasticizer types. Overall, the current study manifested that plasticized sugar palm starch can be regarded as a promising biopolymer for biodegradable films.
