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

## 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
Gas transport properties are reported for two series of films prepared from initially miscible thermoplastic/thermoset blends, respectively, polystyrene PS/thermoset and poly(2,6 dimethyl 1,4 phenylene oxide) PPE/thermoset blends. The thermoplastic contents are such that in both cases, after the pha
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
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
