Influences of Acid and Alkali on Mechanical Properties of Compression-Molded Gluten Bioplastics
2008
Zhang, Q. | Song, Y. | Zheng, Q.
The present work was focused on the effects of acid and alkali on the uniaxial extensional deformation of gluten bioplastics compression-molded at 80 and 110°C. Water absorption and morphology observation were also performed to characterize the properties and morphology of the gluten bioplastics. The results show that HCl did not show catalysis function for cross-linking proteins at 80°C and even hindered the cross-linking reaction at 110°C. On the other hand, NaOH generally accelerated the cross-linking reaction during compression-molding, thus significantly improving Young's modulus, tensile strength, and strain at break. However, an NaOH content >0.5 wt% could cause adverse effects at molding temperatures as high as 110°C.
