Multifunctional starch-based barrier materials, TAPPI Journal August 2021
ABSTRACT: Natural and renewable polymer-based barrier materials play an inevitable role in a sustainable economy. Most commercially available barrier materials are either based on multiple layers of synthetic polymers or petroleum-based chemicals. Tremendous amounts of research are being done in academia and industry to replace these synthetic barrier materials with natural and environmentally friendly materials. The current work summarizes the application of starch-based materials for various barrier applications, such as water vapor, oxygen, liquid water, oil, and grease. Also, exotic starch-based barrier materials for the application of sound, ultraviolet, and thermal barrier applications are reviewed. The potential of starch-based materials to offer antimicrobial and antiviral properties is discussed. Finally, commercially available starch-based barrier materials have been summarized.

Editorial: Honoring the contributions of Dr. Mahendra Doshi
n this column, we would like to recognize the contributions to TAPPI and TAPPI Journal made by Dr. Mahendra Doshi, who passed away in April. A long-time member of TAPPI and a TAPPI Journal Editorial Board Member for many years, he is recognized for his research in screening system analysis, wax, and stickies removal in the field of recycling. Doshi was a pioneer in stickies classification and measurement methods for macro and micro stickies. During his career, he consulted with paper mills all over the world, providing mills with solutions for deinking, wax, stickies, yield, dirt count, and brightness.
