Starch-Based Biodegradable Polymer Blends

Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT, MFR 4–6 g/10 min at 190 °C) was purchased from Xinjiang Blue Ridge Tunhe Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Changji, China. Native corn starch containing 73% amylopectin and 27% amylose (purity 99%) was provided by Binzhou Jinhui Corn Development Co., Ltd., Binzhou, China. Stearic acid was obtained from Oledchemicals Industry, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Citric acid (purity 99.5%), glycerol (purity 99.5%), tributyl 2-acetylcitrate (ATBC, purity 97%), and all other chemicals were supplied by Macklin Chemical Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
