RESUMEN
ABSTRACT
In this research the first results of biopolymers derived from starch extracted from potatoes and
yucca are presented, these were analyzed by IR spectroscopy technique observing that in both
cases they have the same characteristics of starch, that is why the potato starch was chosen as a
tuber that is abundant in Peru, from this starch 50 micron-thickness-coating approximately
were obtained, which were characterized by techniques of lenghtening and tensile strength with
maximum lenghtening values of 62% and a maximum tensile force of 10 Newton. Likewise, it
was characterized by IR spectroscopy, finding the characteristics peaks of cellulose, the
coatings have a high transmittance in the visible range, atomic absorption analysis show safety
coatings obtained.
