Effect of Morphology on the Biodegradation of Thermoplastic Starch in LDPE/TPS Blends

In this study, thermoplastic starch (TPS) was mixed with low density polyethylene with different melt flow indexes in a one-step extrusion process to produce LDPE/TPS blends varied from 32% to 62% by weight of TPS. The influence of starch content and LDPE viscosity on morphology, biodegradation and...
