Preparation and Properties of Edible Packaging Film Based on Wheat Starch

Abstract:

Low price of wheat starch as a wide range of sources of edible film substrate, glycerol as a plasticizer, pullulan as a film-forming agent, prepared by solution casting of wheat starch-based edible green packaging materials. Tests were run on wheat starch-based edible films to determine mechanical properties, transparency and color evaluation. It was observed that the increase of the glycerol content in the wheat starch films increased the macromolecular mobility, the wheat starch films became less stiff and more flexible. Meanwhile the transparency and yellow index are both increased, obviously.
