Abstract: The present work was aims to generate a sustainable alternative for the production of bioplastics as a proposal for Agroindustrial uses, taking crops from El Salvador such as potato (Solanum tuberosum) y Mandioca (Manihot esculenta Crantz) rich in starch, modifying the molecular structure by thermochemical process for obtain a thermoplastic starch capable to be moldable as a biodegradable film and be blended as a biocomposite. This with the objective to mitigate the pollution originate for petrochemical plastic with a high emissions of greenhouse gases and direct effects to the biodiversity, since the population growth dynamics has led the use excessive of plastics for culture and socio-economic factors, demand that will increase parallel with the food production.
