DOI: 10.1016/j.polymdegradstab.2017.05.011
Abstract: Paramylon, which is a β-(1,3)-D-glucan photosynthesized by Euglena, was chemically modified by esterification. Various paramylon triesters with different alkyl chain lengths (carbon numbers 2–12) were successfully prepared. All of the paramylon triesters have higher thermal… read more here.
