Abstract

Excessive use of petroleum-based materials such as fuels, lubricants, dyes, solvents, asphalt, textile fibers and plastics has generated over time a serious environmental problem, due to long periods of degradation of these materials. That is why today’s research focuses on plastics because they have little life, these wastes end up being deposited in landfills, oceans, lakes and other water sources causing pollution of this vital resource for life, all this, kills animal species and ecosystem´s destabilization. Science has proposed solutions such as recycling, the use of materials made of paper, and the development of biodegradable materials, one of those is sagu starch which is an alternative of raw material for the production of biodegradable plastics. This research was aiming to develop a bioplastic using oxidized sago starch. In this study, we performed a physicochemical characterization of native starch, oxidized starch, and bioplastic made from starch. The analyzes performed were: percentage of carbonyl and carboxil groups, transparent gels. It was also applied a scanning electron microscopy where an irregular appearance of the starch granules size was observed. In addition, EDS microscopy allowed us to observe the simple chemistry of the granules, where the oxidized starches have a higher percentage of oxygen than native starch. In the analysis of X ray diffraction, it was observed the patterns of diffraction and the semicrystalline character of the starch. The FT-IR spectrum shows the characteristics of native and oxidized starches bands. On the other hand, the solubility tests and transparency show an advantage of bioplastic made with oxidized starch.

Keywords: Starch, Sagu, Oxidized starch, Bioplastics.
