Barrier property enhancement of starch citrate bioplastic film by an ammonium-thiourea complex modification

Although citric acid modification of starch biopolymers gives a more thermodynamically stable starch citrate, the barrier properties of the product is relatively poor. This paper reports a novel modification process which significantly improved the barrier properties of starch citrate by treating it...
