Mango kernel starch films as affected by starch nanocrystals and cellulose nanocrystals.

Mango seeds have been used to obtain components for nanocomposite films, namely, starch and starch nanocrystals (SNC) from seed kernels, and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) from seed shells. Lignin was also recovered from shells. Starch-based films were prepared with different contents and combinations of SNC and CNC.
