Mechanical properties of tapioca starch-based film incorporated with bulk chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle: a comparative study

Tapioca starch-based film exhibits poor mechanical properties, thus limiting the application of the film as food packaging material. The present study aims to improve the mechanical properties of tapioca starch-based film by varying the concentration of glycerol (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25% w/w). Then, th...
