The acetylation of starch is a chemical modification, known for more than a century Jarowenko [1]. In the modified starch, part of the hydroxyl groups of the glucose monomers have been converted into o-(-ethanoate) groups. Highly acetylated starches with a degree of substitution (DS) of 2 to 3 were
Blends including natural wheat starch and acetylated starch (with substitution degree 1.5) have been extruded so as to obtain a new packaging material. The inΒ―uence of this extrusion upon the biodegradability of the blends was studied for several acetylated to natural starch ratios both by a colouri
## Abstract Poly(hexylene adipate) (PHA) was synthesized by the direct condensation of hexandiol and adipic acid with __p__βtoluene sulfonic acid as a catalyst, dimethyl benzene as a solvent. The terminal carboxyl group of the polyester was then converted to acyl chloride by a solution of SOCl~2~ i
