| Popis: |
Films were fabricated using a mixture of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/cassava starch and incorporated citric acid in a concentration range between 5% and 40%. The films were annealed through thermal treatment in a temperature range between 30 °C and 90 °C with 0.3% glutaraldehyde incorporated as the crosslinking agent. This study presents the results of an experimental design analyzed using the response surface methodology. The multiple regression analysis allowed us to obtain the second-order models, which relate the annealing factors and citric acid concentration to Maximum Tensile Strength (MTS), Young’s Modulus (YM), and the Maximum Elongation at Break (MEB). The optimization and validation of the obtained model were carried out with error values below 10.08% for all the response variables, indicating that the response surface methodology and optimization were correct. Finally, as a complementary analysis, the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) tests were carried out, which revealed a higher packaging of the heat-treated films and verified their crosslinking. |
