“…A modified method based on earlier reports was developed for the synthesis of LMNS biocomposite via esterification in an aqueous medium using K 2 CO 3 as a catalyst. NS of known weight was first gelatinized in distilled water at 70°C for 3 h, to form a homogeneous transparent solution.…”

Low density polyethylene‐g‐maleic anhydride‐g‐starch nanoparticle (LMNS) biocomposites have been synthesized in water medium. LMNS biocomposites were fabricated with different starch nanoparticle (NS) loadings (2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 wt%) by compression molding technique. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed ester linkage between maleic anhydride grafted low density polyethylene (LM) and NS, thereby confirming the improved compatibility of the biocomposites. Thermal analysis confirmed the chemical linkage of NS on LM chains. The wettability and surface roughness characteristics of biocomposites were evaluated by water sorption, static contact angle, and atomic force microscopy. Water sorption was improved due to the increase of NS content in samples, whereas the water contact angle and surface roughness were diminished. The load at maximum, tensile strength and percentage of elongation at break for the biocomposites were enhanced with the increase in NS content. The morphology analysis of samples revealed homogenous distribution and good interfacial adhesion. The biodegradation enhancement of samples has been revealed by fungal and soil burial tests. POLYM.

“…Though the material was very brittle, its application as a blend component was investigated in a second step. In a preliminary test, WPI-oleate was blended with another bio-based material, starch laurate, obtained by the homogenous transesterification of vinyl laurate in DMSO [25]. For this purpose, both materials were processed by extrusion at 150°C and subsequently successfully processed via injection moulding into test specimens.…”

“…At present, LFESs are mainly prepared by wet process (Winkler, Vorwerg, & Wetzel, 2013). Although this process has uniform and gentle reaction properties, it produces a large number of waste water, gas, and residue, leading to environmental pollution.…”
