DOI: 10.1016/j.jcs.2017.11.021
Abstract: Abstract To obtain high-elongation flexible packaging, glycerol (GLY) and a series of polyethers (PEs), i.e. poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly (propylene glycol) (PPG), poly (tetramethylene glycol) (PTMG), were chosen as model plasticizers to soften zein… read more here.
