In this regard, naturally renewable polymers such as starch has shown great potential as environmental friendly materials. Besides, the unique properties of starch such as biodegradable and non-toxic, biocompatible and solubility make them useful for a various biomedical applications. Regardless of their unique properties, starch materials are known to have limitations in term of poor processability, low mechanical properties, poor long term stability and high water sensitivity. In order to overcome these limitations, the incorporation of nano size fillers into starch materials (nanocomposites) has been introduced. This review aims to give an overview about structure and characteristics of starch, modification of starch by nanocomposites and their potential for biomedical applications. 2022 2022-03-07T08:29:14Z 2022-03-07T08:29:14Z 2017-06 Article IOP Conference Services: Material Sciences Engineering, vol.209, 2017, 7 pages 1757-899x (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/74587 https://doi.org/10.1088/1757-899x/209/1/012087 en International Conference on Innovative Research (ICIR Euroinvent 2017); IOP Publishing Ltd |
