To produce the bioplastics, several steps were done sequentially: (1) dissolving a mixture of cornstarch, glycerol, and acetic acid in aqueous solution; (2) adding turmeric microparticles with a specific amount (i.e., 0.50; 0.75; 1.00; 1.50% (w/w)); (3) homogenizing the mixture at temperature of 60ºC; (4) molding process; and (5) drying process to get a solid bioplastic. Experimental results showed that the addition of turmeric microparticles could change the bioplastics strength as well as its biodegradability, while too much amount of turmeric may result in high strength but low biodegradability.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Bioplastics,Drying process,High strength,Literature reviews,Micro-particles,Molding process[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Biodegradation,Bioplastics,Cornstarch,Mechanical properties,Turmeric[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.18149/MPM.4612020_10[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
