## Abstract Biodegradable polymers have attracted considerable attention because of their use as substitutes for nonbiodegradable polymers in disposable commodity applications. Poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) was blended with thermoplastic starch prepared from regular corn starch in PCL/starch ratios of

## Abstract Dynamic mechanical measurements were carried out in composites made of quartz powder‐filled epoxy resin at frequencies between 7 and 600 Hz and temperatures between 290 and 460 K. Using the William–Landel–Ferry relationship, master curves of the dynamic moduli were obtained as a functio
The influence of the lixiviates originated in a municipal landfill on the thermal degradation of a polymeric system composed of a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (n ϭ 0) and 1,2-diaminecyclohexane was studied by dynamic mechanical analysis. Storage modulus (EЈ), loss modulus (EЉ), and glass transiti
