Thermoplastic starch as packaging material
Acta Scientiarum Polonorum Technica Agraria, 2006 Attempts to reduce net CO2 emission and to increase the use of sustainable materials pose great challenges at the interface of chemical engineering and agricultural engineering. One of the products involved is thermoplastic starch that can partly substitute synthetic plastics, amongst others in packaging.

ANTIBACTERIAL THERMOPLASTIC STARCH-CHITOSAN BASED MATERIALS PREPARED BY MELT-MIXING
BioResources, 2012 Antibacterial thermoplastic starch-chitosan based materials were successfully prepared by melt-mixing. The effect of chitosan modification (quaternization and grafting of long carbon chains) on the properties of the materials was also studied.
