Abstract

The objective of this study was to prepare the edible composite films using high-amylose corn starch (HACS) and corn zein and to determine their physical properties. HACS was gelatinized using the specially designed high-pressure container. HACS film containing 20 g sorbitol/100 g as a plasticizer had suitable physical properties. The HACS film coated with corn zein containing 20 g oleic acid/100 g had moderate physical properties and barrier properties.
