Preparation of biodegradable composite starch/tragacanth gum/Nanoclay film and study of its physicochemical and mechanical properties

In this study, biodegradable composite starch/tragacanth gum/Nanoclay (St/TG/Clay) film was prepared. The basis of the film was wheat starch, which tragacanth gum was added at three levels (0.2 and 0.5% by w/w) and clay nanoparticles at three levels (0.1, 0.5 and 3% by w/w). Physicochemical properti...
