Abstract: Several starch derivatives bearing urea groups (TUCAST, MTUCAST, and PTUCAST) based on 6-O-chloroacetylated starch (CAST) were successfully designed and synthesized. FT-IR, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis were carried out to identify the structural characteristics… read more here.
