摘要
Starch-g-polystyrene and starch-g-poly(methyl acrylate) copolymers were synthesized and extruded without separating homopolymer PS or PMA. The extrusion behavior resembled that of thermoplastic melts in that these products were shear thinning and exhibited significant extrudate swelling, and entrance pressure losses capillary flow. These and other observations indicate that the materials comprise deformable polymer-grafted starch particles suspended in the corresponding homopolymer melt. Flow is apparently by superparticle, rather than continuum melt mechanisms.
