Abstract

Tartaric acid modified starch microparticles (TA-SM) previously obtained using the dry preparation technique were introduced as filler within glycerol plasticized-corn starch (GCS), the composites being prepared by casting process. The effects of cellulose addition within the TA-SM-GCS matrix on the structure, surface properties and water sorption, as well as mechanical and thermal properties of starch-based composite films were investigated. The water resistance and thermal stability were slightly improved through addition of high content of cellulose due to the inter-component H-bonding between components. The evaluation of mechanical properties evidenced a significant increase of the tensile strength of the composites with increasing the content level of cellulose.
