Tapioca starch with 50% OSA starch was investigated. For composite foam tapioca starch mixed by adding alpha-chitin at 5% - 30% of starch weight, it was found that water absorption was reduced. The higher alpha-chitin content in blending foam, the denser of foam structure observed which resulted in increasing of the foam density. The maximum bending stress of composite starch was decreased, but increasing the maximum bending strain.展开更多
