Characterizations of thermoplastic starch and starch reinforced montmorillonite clay nanocomposite

This paper reported the characterizations of thermoplastic starch (TPS) and starch/nanoclaycomposite prepared from sago (Metroxylonrottb.) and Montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclay. Preparation of nanocomposite using inorganic filler such as MMT is among the means to enhance some properties of starch biop...
