Abstract

Corn and native cassava starch were modified by oxidation and acid hydrolysis, aiming to develop paper and paperboard stickers. The oxidation was made with Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in two distinct concentrations of active chloride which is present on oxidizing agent solution. The synthesis resulting products were used to make stickers and they were compared to corn and cassava starch based stickers without any modification, as well as commercial stickers based on polyvinyl acetate (PVA). Two different methodologies were tested using acid hydrolysis to modify corn and cassava starch, both using phosphoric acid (H3PO4) in order to obtain dextrin and subsequently use it in the production of stickers and also comparing them to petrochemical-based commercial stickers. Considering the different starch modifications methods (oxidation and acid hydrolysis), stickers based on renewable raw material were obtained, which combine biodegradability, low costs and availability.
