Development of biodegradable starch-based foams incorporated with grape stalks for food packaging
Open accessAbstract
Biodegradable cassava starch-based foams incorporated with grape stalks were obtained by thermal expansion. The morphology (SEM), chemical structure (FTIR), crystallinity (XRD), and biodegradability of the foams were evaluated. An applicability test was performed in the storage of food. SEM images showed no residue agglomerations and cell structure generally observed in materials obtained by thermal expansion; FTIR analysis verified interactions of foam components. XRD analysis showed native cassava starch characteristic peaks and the loss of crystallinity after the expansion process, with the formation of an amorphous material. Foams were completely biodegraded after 7 weeks, demonstrating that, for the experimental conditions used, the interactions between the starch and the grape stalks did not generate recalcitrant compounds or structural alterations that would impair foam degradation. Furthermore, the foams added with grape stalks presented good properties in the applicability test, showing a promising application in the storage of foods with low moisture content.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
