Ultrathin Wood Laminae–Thermoplastic Starch Biodegradable Composites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Renewable Materials, 2017
Novel fully biodegradable thermoplastic composite laminates reinforced with ultrathin wood laminae were prepared through a hot-pressing process by using two different thermoplastic starch (TPS) matrices. The microstructure and physical properties of the resulting unidirectional and bidirectional laminates were studied.

Properties and Biodegradability of Thermoplastic Starch Obtained from Granular Starches Grafted with Polycaprolactone

open access: yesInternational Journal of Polymer Science, 2017
Granular starches grafted with polycaprolactone (St-g-PCL) were obtained using N-methylimidazole (NMI) as a catalyst. The effect of the starch/monomer ratio and catalyst content was studied to obtain different levels of grafted PCL.
