The mechanical and water vapor permeability of starch/carrageenan cast films were investigated the rheological properties of starch/carrageenan blends were also studied. The blends were prepared by different concentrations of starch and carrageenan. Three concentration of starch (0.75 1 and 1.25) and two concentrations of carrageenan (0.5 and 0.75) were used with adding 0.5 glycerol as plasticizer the results show that all samples behaves as non-Newtonian pseudoplastic fluid and obeys the power law relationship. The mechanical and water vapor permeability of the cast films increase with increasing carrageenan content.

Abstract

The mechanical and water vapor permeability of starch/carrageenan cast films were investigated the rheological properties of starch/carrageenan blends were also studied. The blends were prepared by different concentrations of starch and carrageenan. Three concentration of starch (0.75 1 and 1.25) and two concentrations of carrageenan (0.5 and 0.75) were used with adding 0.5 glycerol as plasticizer the results show that all samples behaves as non-Newtonian pseudoplastic fluid and obeys the power law relationship. The mechanical and water vapor permeability of the cast films increase with increasing carrageenan content.
