The blending of thermoplastic starch (TPS) with other biodegradable polyesters such as polyesteramide could be an interesting way to produce new biodegradable starch-based materials. Different mixes of wheat starch and polyesteramide (BAK) were melt blended by extrusion. After pelletization, granule

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
## Abstract The vital differences using three types of thermoplastic starches (TPS), including potato starch, corn starch, and soluble potato starch, with two different gelatinization degrees to blend with poly(hydroxy butyrate) (PHB) are thoroughly discussed in this study. For blends containing a
