Cover Issue 1 : Ghosts are insoluble materials remaining after the gelatinization of starch dispersion. In article 600308 , Jose Alvarez‐Ramirez and co‐workers study the impact of ghosts on the mechanical, optical, and barrier properties of starch films. The presence of ghosts imposes a trade‐off problem between mechanical stability and properties such as opacity and water‐vapor permeability. The image shows the distribution of ghosts on the surface of a starch‐glycerol film.
