Plastic formulations containing up to 40% starch were prepared and blown into thin films using extrusion methods. Extruded films were evaluated for their biodegradability by exposing them to a consortium of starch degrading bacteria in the laboratory for 45 days and in the 'La Silla' river located i
## Abstract Blends of hydroxypropylated high amylose starch and various functional aids listed below were extruded into foams using a twinβscrew extruder ZSK β 30. In this study, the hydrophobic character and mechanical properties of starch foams were improved by using other biodegradable polymers,
## Abstract Starch microcellular foam was produced by supercritical fluid extrusion (SCFX) using native and pregelatinized starch mixtures. The starch solution was reacted with epichlorohydrin (EPI) under alkaline conditions in a continuous twinβscrew extruder in the presence of supercritical carbo
