Obtaining and characterizing a biodegradable polymer from cassava starch

In this investigation a biodegradable polymer is obtained from cassava starch by processing mixtures of modified starch with glycerin and water as plasticizers, using an open mill and a single screw extruder. The variables to be controlled during extrusion are: temperature profile, torque, and spind...
