摘要:
The enthalpy relaxation during aging below T-g of an amorphous starch was examined via the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) relation in order to describe its kinetic process quantitatively. The experimental data were fitted satisfactorily by the KWW equation of stretched exponential form. Comparison to the results reported in previous studies reveals that both the values of the mean relaxation time tau and the relaxation time distribution beta(0.23-0.34) obtained through the fitting process were reasonable. Furthermore, the effect of physical aging below T-g on the water vapor permeability (WVP) of starch film was investigated. The WVP was reduced by aging below T-g, which agreed with the results reported previously for several synthetic polymer systems. Consequently, in the present study, the reduction of moisture transfer during aging can also be interpreted as a result of decreasing free volume, which occurs simultaneously with enthalpy relaxation.
