Abstract
The invention relates to uncoated, fiber/starch composite materials manufactured without the use of fluorochemicals or additional binders that offer superior oil and grease resistance properties. Addition of an internal sizing agent in the preparation of the fiber/starch composite materials results in superior hot water and cold water resistance properties. The fiber/starch composite materials may be used for the manufacture of food service containers. The invention also relates to methods of preparation of the fiber/starch composite materials.
