D. Lourdin et al., CORRELATION BETWEEN STATIC MECHANICAL-PROPERTIES OF STARCH-GLYCEROL MATERIALS AND LOW-TEMPERATURE RELAXATION, Macromolecular symposia, 114, 1997, pp. 179-185
Mechanical, calorimetric, dynamic mechanical and dielectric properties
were measured in starch and amylose films plasticized by different gl
ycerol contents. Low-temperature relaxation was found to be highly dep
endent on plasticizer level and related to unusual mechanical properti
es.
