The effect of pea fiber and potato pulp on thermal property, surface tension, and hydrophilicity of extruded starch thermoplastics
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the addition of pea fiber and potato pulp on the thermal property, surface tension and hydrophilic character of extruded potato starch films plasticized with glycerol and triethyl citrate. Film samples were prepared from a film device attached with twin screw extruder. The surface tension and hydrophilicity of samples conditioned at 50% relative humidity (RH) were determined through …
