© 2016 Elsevier Ltd Cassava starch was melt-blended with glycerol (70/30 wt%/wt%) at 140 °C to prepare thermoplastic starch (TPS). Chitosan (CTS) was premixed with starch and glycerol, in acidified water (lactic acid 2 wt%), at 1, 5 and 10 wt%/wt%. TPS/CTS was then melt-blended (160 °C) with polyeth...
