Multiscale Structure of Starches Grafted with Hydrophobic Groups: A New Analytical Strategy

Starch, an abundant and low-cost plant-based glucopolymer, has great potential to replace carbon-based polymers in various materials. In order to optimize its functional properties for bioplastics applications chemical groups need to be introduced on the free hydroxyl groups in a controlled manner,...
