Thermomechanical and Morphology of Biodegradable Film Made of Taro Starch and Chitosan Plasticized by Castor Oil

Abstract: A biodegradable film made of taro starch and chitosan plasticized by castor oil was created through a casting solvent method. This study examined the influence of taro starch and chitosan composition on the thermo-mechanical and morphological properties of the film. We have successfully obtained a film with a smooth surface and compact structure of taro starch. The results showed that the higher proportion of chitosan in the polymer matrix succeeded in increasing the tensile strength and thermal stability of t… Show more

“…Until now, Tannia rarely been utilized as a bioplastic raw material, as well as for food. This is different from taro, which has been reported several times as raw material from both bioplastics and foods (Pramodrao, & Riar, 2014;Asria, 2016;Hasan et al, 2019).…”

“…The degradation tests of bio-films was Spectral Analysis of the Bio-films Figure 3 and 4 show the IR spectra of Cucurbita pepo and Musa paradisiaca. In the IR spectrum of Cucurbita pepo bio-film the characteristic peak at 3605.99 cm -1 shows the presence of O-H stretching bond 20 , the peak at 2326.18 cm -1 shows O=C=O stretching bond 21 , the absorption bands at 2155.99 cm -1 and 1743.92 cm -1 shows the presence of N=N=N and C=O stretching and the band at 1472.50 cm -1 shows C=C ring stretching aromatic bond. The characteristics peaks at 3205.90 cm -1 , 2957.66 cm -1 , 2132 cm -1 , 1421 cm -1 and at 857 cm -1 of the Musa paradisiacal biofilm were attributed to N-H stretching (secondary amine) hydrogenbonded nitriles, strong C-H stretching (alkanes) 22 , C≡Calkynes, C-H stretching (alkene) and aromatic C-H stretching respectively in the FT-IR Spectrum.…”

“…Bioplastics are made from natural polymeric materials such as starch, cellulose, and fats (Amni et al, 2020;Hasan et al, 2019;Silviana & Subagio, 2019;Judawisastra et al, 2018;Suharty et al, 2014). However, bioplastic cannot completely replace the function of conventional plastic yet.…”
