Abstract: | Biodegradable films were prepared by casting from 50 % solution of hydrolysate (w/w) cross-linked with starch dialdehyde (DAS). DAS was dosed 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 % based on weight of hydrolysate. 30 g of hydrolysate was dissolved in 100 ml of water at 60 °C and after adjustment of pH to 11 with 1 N NaOH starch dialdehyde was added. The solution was cast on a silicone plate and the film was made after evaporation of water at 30 oC for 72 hours. Test film samples measuring 2 by 2 cm were cut and conditioned over silica gel in a dessicator for 2 and/or for 15 days. Solubility test were conducted in a glass bottles where test film samples were covered with water and incubated at 37 oC for a desired period of time. After the prescribed dissolution time the non-dissolved fraction of the test film sample was separated by filtration, dried at 103 oC to a constant weight and weighed. The dependences of dissolved film sample fractions on time of dissolution with various amounts of DAS are presented graphically. It was found that the higher dosage of DAS the lower solubility of films. A longer conditioning time also showed in a lower dissolving rate of films. Solubility curves of biodegradable films are very important characteristics for their utilization in practice. | ||||||||||
