摘要: The current study deals with the preparation and characterization of polysaccharide-based biocomposite films acquired by incorporation cellulose nanofiber within glycerol plasticized matrix formed starch. application starch-based is limited due to highly hydrophilic nature poor mechanical properties. These problems are solved forming a nanocomposite thermoplastic starch (TPS) as (CNF) reinforcement. CNF successfully prepared from short henequen fibers which consist almost 60% chemo-mechanical process. TPS/CNF composite polymer solution casting method, their characterizations obtained water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), oxygen (OTR), X-ray diffraction, light transmittance tensile test. 0.4 wt% loaded TPS showed approximately maximum improvement in strength. Tensile strength elastic modulus increased up 80% 170% respectively. Above 0.5 wt% CNF, starts deteriorate. WVTR OTR results show barrier properties matrix. AFM analysis shows topography surface nanocomposite. morphology nanofibers studied using scanning electron (SEM) (TEM).
