  Processing and Properties of Corn Starch based Thermoplastic Matrix for Green Composites: A Review

  By Vishal J. Pandya, Pravin P. Rathod

  Abstract: New trend is emerging in development of renewable materials such as green composites which are having wide variety of applications. With growing interest and importance, the use thermoplastic starch based bio-polymers has led to more focus on the use of locally available materials. When corn starch based thermoplastic matrix is reinforced with natural fibers, desired physical-chemical properties can be achieved through melt processing. The effect of plasticizers plays vital role …
