❗New scientific contribution from MAGICBIOMAT
MAGICBIOMAT continues to push forward research in circular and biodegradable materials through innovative scientific work. MAGICBIOMAT partners @Technological University of the Shannon, have co-authored a new publication titled “Study of Thermoplastic Starch/Poly (Butylene Succinate) Blends: The Effect of Reactive Compatibilizers.”
This study compares two compatibilisers — Joncryl® ADR 4468 and epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) — for thermoplastic starch (TPS)/polybutylene succinate (PBS) blends.
By analysing blends with varying compatibiliser loadings, it offers valuable insights into their mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties, helping tailor TPS/PBS blends for specific applications and guiding future optimisation strategies.
