Summary:Abstract Cellulose and starch are two natural biological sources that have potential as bioplastic raw materials. Cellulose and starch show tremendous potential to reduce environmental pollution caused by conventional plastics. The compatibility between the cellulosic fibre matrices plays an important role in the properties of the resulting bioplastic. The modification of cellulose into cellulose acetate makes the resulting bioplastics have better mechanical properties. In addition, bioplastics can be composite with starch to have a stronger matrix. Cellulose-starch bio-composites have also been successfully produced. In this article, the focus on the formulation and characterization of cellulosic fibres and starch concerning their application in bioplastics will be discussed. Then, generalize the development and problems of bioplastics that are composite with starch to improve the mechanical properties of bioplastics.
