Reinforcement of Thermoplastic Corn Starch with Crosslinked Starch/Chitosan Microparticles [PDF]
Polymers, 2018 Microparticles of corn starch and chitosan crosslinked with glutaraldehyde, produced by the solvent exchange technique, are studied as reinforcement fillers for thermoplastic corn starch plasticized with glycerol. The presence of 10% w/w chitosan in the microparticles is shown to be essential to guaranteeing effective crosslinking, as demonstrated by ...
