Studies on biodegradability, morphology and mechanical properties of low density polyehtylene/sago based blends
In this study, sago starch was physically blended with LDPE via two-roll mill to produces LDPE/sago starch (SS) bidegradable films. Glycerol was added to the blends as a plasticizer to increase the compatibility of sago starch and LDPE, which also subsequently reduced the brittleness of the film. Me...
