Impact, thermal and biodegradation properties of high impact polystyrene/corn starch blends processed via melt extrusion
High impact polystyrene (HIPS)/corn starch blends were prepared in presence of glycerol as a plasticizer via melt extrusion process by a twin-screw extruder. The novelty of this work is first, because of the use of pre-gelatinized corn starch as modified one and second, the procedure of making blend...
