Formulation and psysicochemical characterization of starch-based films for potential packaging applications

Bio-based films have gained attention as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastic packaging. However, their commercial adoption is limited due to poor mechanical strength and high-water permeability. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the potential of a starch-based film using tapioca...
