Enhancement of mechanical and thermal properties of (Polyvinyl alcohol)-Dialdehyde starch composites via the incorporation of montmorillonite nanofillers

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of nano-size montmorillonite (MMT) in poly(vinyl alcohol)-(dialdehyde starch) (PVOH-DAS) blending system. DAS was initially synthesized through periodate oxidation method, followed by a solution casting procedure to prepare a PVOH-DAS-MMT blend hyb...
