Abstract
Physicochemical properties of the films and their sensitivity to irradiation strongly depend on the applied PVA substrate. This can be related to differences in the capability of particular PVAs for forming the crosslinked starch-PVA network during the films' synthesis and future treatment. In particular, the usage of the PVA characterized by the high molecular mass has appeared more rewarding as compared to those based on the low molecular mass PVAs. Additionally, properties of these films were not affected or improved after irradiation.
