As a renewable and native polymeric material, thermoplastic starch is gaining increased acceptance because of resource and environment concerns. This study reports the formulation design of native starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVAl) compounds; the preparation technology to make them available for thermo
## SYNOPSIS T h e properties of thermoplastic amylopectin materials were investigated by stress-strain and relaxation measurements as a function of water content and crystallinity. Granular waxy maize starch was plasticized by extrusion with water a n d glycerol. T h e materials are amorphous afte
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
