Effects of glycerol and thymol on physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of corn starch films
Abstract
Abstract This study explores the preparation of corn starch (CS) films incorporated with glycerol, thymol, and combination of glycerol and thymol via solution casting technique. The resulting films were characterized in terms of structural changes, physical, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Results show that the presence of both glycerol and thymol in CS film increased the film thickness while reduced the moisture content, solubility, and transparency of the film. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that intermolecular hydrogen bonding existed between CS, glycerol, and thymol. The presence of glycerol had more remarkable impact on tensile strength of CS films than that of thymol alone, while the combination of thymol and glycerol led to synergistic effects. Thermal degradation profiles of the films revealed the maximum degradation temperature of CS film with glycerol and thymol shifted to a higher temperature compared to other films indicating better thermal stability. In conclusion, the inclusion of glycerol and thymol led to improvement in overall performance of corn starch films.

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.
