DOI: 10.1039/d1ra00635e
Abstract: In this work, we report on a reverse micellization approach to prepare uncarbonized starch and poly(1,4-butylene succinate) hybrids with exceptional charge storage performance. Uncarbonized starch was activated through protonation, hybridized with poly (1,4-butylene succinate), configured… read more here.

DOI: 10.5004/dwt.2017.21340
Abstract: Starch poly(acrylic acid) (St-p(AA)) hydrogel was synthesized by radical polymerization in solution of starch with acrylic acid as monomer, N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide as the cross-linking agent and potassium persulfate as the initiator. St-p(AA) was used as a… read more here.
