..., an alternative method to the commonly used solvent-casting technique was implemented through a hot-melt extrusion process. Moreover, to enhance the water resistance of the bioplastic and reduce production costs, waste cooking oil (WCO) was used as a substitute for glycerol plasticizer. Various weight ratios...

... and high-pressure conditions, starch becomes a paste and its molecular hydrogen bonds are broken. After adding chitosan (CH), the CH and starch can form new hydrogen bonds. Biodegradable starch-based straws were made from cassava starch and rice starch (weight ratio = 1:1; CR) by using the extrusion...
