Abstract
⺠The effect of tartaric acid in starch/PBAT blends were evaluated. ⺠A mixture design was used to evaluate the effects in mechanical and barrier properties. ⺠Intermediate proportions of tartaric acid produced films with better properties. ⺠Biodegradable films with good properties were obtained. ⺠This showed to be an interesting alternative to the non-biodegradable packaging.
