Abstract

Starch is the major carbohydrate in a normal diet. Acetic anhydride and acetic acid were used to modify sago starch. The solvent free acetylation was conducted using the process of microwave radiation heating. Iodine served as a catalyst and had a greater influence on the degree of substitution (DS) of sago starch acetate than did the acetylation reagents. As the DS increased, the thermal properties (HG and Tp) of sago starch acetate significantly reduced. Scanning electron micrographs confirmed that the alteration of the initial morphology of sago starch became more evident as DS increased.
