FILMS FROM SPRUCE GALACTOGLUCOMANNAN BLENDED WITH POLY(VINYL ALCOHOL), CORN ARABINOXYLAN, AND KONJAC GLUCOMANNAN
The improvement of mechanical properties of spruce galactoglucomannan (GGM)-based films was sought by blending GGM with each of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH), corn arabinoxylan (cAX), and konjac glucomannan (KGM).
