Thermoplastic Starch [PDF]

Journal of Renewable Materials, 2014
Starch is a biopolymer that is widely available from agriculture/nature and thus is renewable and cheap. In addition, starch-based materials are biodegradable, offering a great advantage over traditional nonbiodegradable synthetic polymers. However, the poor processibility and product performance of starch have greatly impeded the wide application of ...

Sericin cocoon bio-compatibilizer for reactive blending of thermoplastic cassava starch

Scientific Reports, 2021
Cassava starch was blended with glycerol to prepare thermoplastic starch (TPS). Thermoplastic starch was premixed with sericin (TPSS) by solution mixing and then melt-blended with polyethylene grafted maleic anhydride (PEMAH).
