Abstract
Bionanocomposites from low cost and non-scarce resource tapioca starch (TS)-based film were synthesized for food packaging applications. Two types of crosslinkers, namely Citrus aurantifolia, also known as lime juice (LJ), and a commercialized citric acid (CA), were used one at a time with glycerol via solvent casting for comparison purposes. Varying amounts of nanocellulose (NC) extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) were added as...
