Interactions, microstructures, and functional characterization of starch-based films reinforced with oxalic acid-modified honeysuckle flower powder.
Starch films often exhibit poor filler-matrix compatibility when reinforced with natural plant powders, which limits their functional performance. In this study, honeysuckle flower powder was modified via stepwise oxalic acid treatment to enhance its interfacial adhesion with corn starch. The treatment progressively re...
