Resumen:

Antimicrobial films appear in response of the searching for more competitive and aggregated value packaging. With the aim of developing packages that, besides active are also biodegradable, this work proposes to study the effect of antimicrobial additives (honey, cinnamon powder, clove powder, orange essential oil, pepper and coffee powder) on the characterization of cassava starch biobased films. The biofilms were characterized through their mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation at break percentage), water vapor permeability and total solids content.
