## Abstract Two different biodegradable polyesters [polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(3βhydroxybutyrate__βcoβ__valerate) (PHBV)] were blended with a maize starch that had high amylose content through the use different reactive approaches. The compatibilization of both systems was obtained. PCL/starch
Polyester blending of poly(-caprolactone) (PCL) with poly(D,L-lactide) (PLA) and their random copolymers (R CL/LA ) was found to be a convenient approach to regulate the degradation and drug release behaviors of the polyesters. The blend composition and compatibility both affected its degradation an
