In-vitro degradation behaviour of starch/EVOH biomaterials

Blends of corn starch with poly(ethylene-vinyl alcohol) copolymer (SEVA-C) were aged up to 30 days and the degradation solutions were analysed by several techniques. The changes in the mechanical properties as a function of the immersion time can be characterised by an increase in the ductility and...
