Title: Preparation and structural evaluation of chitosan-starch compound film
Abstract: Edible film with chitosan and starch as starting materials by regulating proportion of chitosan and starch and glycerol content was prepaed. The structural characteristics were analyzed. The result showed that mechanical property of the film was optimized when the mass ratio of chitosan and starch was 8∶ 2,the content of glycerine was 0. 4%,and drying temperature was 55℃. Scanning electron microscope(SEM),x-ray diffraction analysis(XRD) and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)results showed the good compatiblity of chitosan-starch compound films.
