Abstract

There are increasing intrest in research on corn based bioplastic to replace current plastic. However, corn based bioplastic faces a major drawback which are lack water barrier and poor mechanical properties resulting from its hydophilic properties. To produce better corn based bioplastic properties, a lot of research has been focuses on blend corn based bioplastic with other co biopolymer or additives and also radiation. By using radiation corn based bioplastic will induce degradation, cross linking or grafting and next the properties of corn based bioplastic will be improve in aspect of mechanical, physical and barrier properties and also acceptable to use as packaging material. Irradiated corn based bioplastic also have wide range of technology, the availability, less harmful to environment and the most important is the potential to use as packaging material. There is hot debate about using irradiated corn based bioplastic as packaging material. This review paper will be discussing and also to provide information on influence of radiation on the properties corn based bioplastic and its feasibility as packaging material.
