Abstract
Cassava starch films are fabricated with acetic acid treatment and ultrasonication. Different ultrasound power levels from 200 to 750 W are used and the effects of ultrasonication on the morphology, microstructures, and properties of the starch–acetic acid films are investigated. Scanning electron microscopy shows a cohesive and compact structure of the films resulting from ultrasonication. X‐ray diffraction analysis reveals that the crystalline index is decreased by acid treatment and increased by ultrasonication. The tensile strength and elongation at break of the films first increase and then decrease with increasing ultrasound power level. Ultrasonication also results in higher opacity, higher water barrier performance, and lower water adsorption of the films. Thus, the results show that ultrasonication can be used as a simple and efficient way to modify the morphology, microstructure, and performance of starch–acetic acid films to better meet the application needs.
