“…In another work, Schlemmer et al [57] studied the biodegradation of TPS/PS blends, starch was plasti cized using glycerol and buriti oil as plasticizers. From TGA analysis of TPS/PS blends with glycerol, before and after buried for 6 months, it was verified that all the samples presented less stages of thermal degrada tion after the period of soil buried test.…”

“…Infere-se que não há fortes ligações químicas entre os componentes das blendas, pois não há deslocamento de picos e nem aparecimento de novos picos [23] . A degradação de um polímero é um processo irreversível, ocasionado por vários fatores responsáveis pela perda de suas propriedades.…”
