Effects of high starch content on the physicochemical properties of starch/PBAT nanocomposite films prepared by extrusion blowing

Starch/PBAT nanocomposite films with high starch content were prepared using one-step compounding and subsequent extrusion blowing. The effects of the starch/PBAT weight proportions on the physicochemical properties of the films were investigated. The X-ray diffraction results demonstrated that the extent of intercalation of the starch/PBAT nanocomposite films increased with the increasing PBAT content. The dynamic mechanical analysis revealed...
