Obtaining a Flexible Film Elaborated from Cassava Thermoplastic Starch and Polylactic Acid
A flexible film was obtained from a blend of cassava thermoplastic starch and polylactic acid, using maleic anhydride as coupling agent. For this, an experimental design with three factors was used: polylactic acid content, coupling agent content, and temperature profile of the blown extrusion. It w...
