Polycaprolactone (PCL) was grafted onto starch through introduction of urethane linkages. The grafting reaction was carried out in two steps. The first step was the reaction of hydroxyl-terminated PCL with 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate. The isocyanate terminated PCL was then reacted with starch to obtai
## Abstract **Summary:** Polycaprolactone (PCL) and starch/PCL blends (SPCL) are shown to have the potential to be used in a range of biomedical applications and can be processed with conventional meltingβbased procedures. In this paper, the thermal and thermomechanical analyses of PCL and SPCL wer
## Abstract We investigated the effect of reactive blending on the mechanical properties and morphology of highβdensity polyethylene (HDPE)/plasticized starch blends. HDPE was chemically modified to enhance the compatibility with the plasticized starch. The modified HDPE, HDPEβ__g__βglycidyl methac
