“…In energy-dispersive spectroscopy, the particles at the surface are energized by the electron beam by discharging specific frequencies of X-ray beams, which may be normal for the nuclear state of the components [102,[118][119][120][121]123]. A power-dispersive identifier [124,190], a solid-state device that separates among X-ray beam energies, examines the outflow X-ray beam [126]. In most studies, the influence of the polymer matrix and cellulose-based nanofiller can be determined using EDAX analysis.…”

Nanomaterials are currently used for different applications in several fields. Bringing the measurements of a material down to nanoscale size makes vital contributions to the improvement of the characteristics of materials. The polymer composites acquire various properties when added to nanoparticles, increasing characteristics such as bonding strength, physical property, fire retardance, energy storage capacity, etc. The objective of this review was to validate the major functionality of the carbon and cellulose-based nanoparticle-filled polymer nanocomposites (PNC), which include fabricating procedures, fundamental structural properties, characterization, morphological properties, and their applications. Subsequently, this review includes arrangement of nanoparticles, their influence, and the factors necessary to attain the required size, shape, and properties of the PNCs.

“…TEM is similar to SEM, in which an inordinate voltage (80-200 keV), an engaged electron beam, is emitted through a narrow, consistent case, ordinarily 100-200 nm in thickness [96,125,126,190]. Electrons are subject to sound dispersion or diffraction from grid planes inside the glass-like section of the substance.…”

Short‐life packaging has been contributing to the increased consumption of polymers. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is a material that is widely used in disposable packaging, however, its residue occupies a large volume, is difficult to degrade, and its recycling is expensive. That's why the interest in looking for a material of natural and biodegradable origin that can be an alternative to petrochemical‐based polymers. One possibility would be starch, which is a natural and biodegradable polysaccharide and can be extracted from different sources. However, natural starch does not have good properties for commercial application, requiring chemical modifications and/or the incorporation of additives. This article carried out a compilation of current studies that work on the development of packaging, whether film or foams, based on plasticized starch (TPS), and analyzes the influence of the incorporation of additives or treatments carried out in the starch. The blowing agent decreases foam density, cell size, and increases cell density. Incorporation of glycerol in starch foams increases the gelatinization temperature, decreases viscosity and resistance to expansion. The surfactant decreases the density and moisture absorption of the foam, the nucleating agent acted by increasing the mechanical strength and density of the foam, and decreases the absorption of water.
