To investigate the applicability of high-amylose corn grits (HACG) to the process for extruded products, a single screw extruder was used to produce extrudates under feed rate of 220 g/min, barrel temperature of 120°C, and screw rotational speed of 150 rpm. The nutritional, physical and sensory properties were investigated in the HACG extrudate and normal corn grits (NCG) extrudate acting as control. The results indicated that the HACG extrudate had higher (P≤ 0.05) protein (7.07%), fiber (5.41%), lipid (1.48%), ash (0.76%), resistant starch (2.89%), zein (4.65%), calcium (22.34 mg/kg), magnesium (718.63 mg/kg), iron (19.47 mg/kg), zinc (22.73 mg/kg) contents and 16 of 17 types of amino acids compared to the NCG extrudate. In regards to physical properties, the bulk density (BD), radial expansion index (REI) and water solubility index (WSI) values of the HACG extrudate, which were 57.94 mg/ml, 45.47 and 43.25, respectively, were significantly lower (P≤ 0.05) than those of the NCG extrudate. However, the HACG extrudate had a higher special length (SL), indicating a higher axial expansion, water absorption index (WAI), frangibility and cohesiveness (7.34 cm/g, 3.69, 68.79 and 0.32, respectively), and a more sponge-like structure. A sensory analysis indicated that the HACG extrudate had higher values for frangibility, cohesiveness, chewiness and overall taste with a lower coarseness and adhesiveness (to teeth).

To improve the miscibility of native rice starch granules and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT), rice starch was hydrolyzed by a mixture of α-amylase and amyloglucosidase. The obtained porous rice granular starch was then mechanically blended with PBAT by single screw extruder. Many pits and holes on the surface of starch granules were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The rough surface of the rice starch granules improved the compatibility of the polymers in the blends, which consequently increased the tensile strength and the elongation at break. In addition, SEM also revealed that the porous granules were homogeneously distributed in the polymer matrix with no appearance of gaps.

The development of materials engineering has led to many significant discoveries one of which is biocomposite with its diverse applications. The addition of reinforcing materials in biopolymers improves the composite properties. This study aimed at investigating the effect of adding nanoclay on the tensile strength, morphology, functional group, and structure of extruded biocomposites with cassava starch matrix. This experimental research involved different concentrations of nanoclay i.e. 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%. The extrusion process was performed using a single screw extruder at 120°C. The samples were characterized by tensile testing, XRD, and SEM. The biocomposite reinforced with 5% nanoclay had the highest tensile strength of 10.8 MPa. The highest diffraction peak at 2θ of 19.4° appeared in the sample added with 5% nanoclay. The addition of excessive amounts of nanoclay can hinder the formation of exfoliated structures.
