Effect of Phthalic Anhydride Content on Properties of Soy Protein Isolate/Kapok Husk Biofilm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Soy protein isolate (SPI)/kapok husk (KH) based biofilms were prepared by casting method. The effect of phthalic anhydride (PA) content on tensile properties and morphology were studied. The PA was use as a crosslink agent. It was found that the increasing PA content have increased the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of biofilms, whereas the elongation at break decreased. At 1.5 % of PA showed the highest tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of crosslink biofilms. The morphology study indicates the crosslinking with PA improved the interfacial interaction between KH and SPI matrix.
