Comparative study of film forming behaviour of low and high amylose starches using glycerol and xylitol as plasticizers

In this study, the film forming behaviour of low amylose (LA) and high amylose (HA) starches was studied. The starch-alone and a blend of plasticizer (polyol)–starch films were developed by gelatinising at various temperatures and casting at 25 °C. The starch–plasticizer films contained glycerol and...
