This study's aim was to evaluate the effect of processing conditions on the morphology and enzymatic degradation of 50/50 (w/w) thermoplastic starch-polycaprolactone blends. The blends, produced from native potato starch, glycerol, and polycaprolactone in a melt mixer using different mixing speeds a

This paper describes the processing dependence of the mechanical properties of three blends of starch/ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) with potential uses as biomaterials. These blends exhibit a distinct rheological behaviour and mechanical performance. Using shear controlled orientation in injection m
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 in¯uence of this extrusion upon the biodegradability of the blends was studied for several acetylated to natural starch ratios both by a colouri
