Glass-transition behaviour of plasticized starch biopolymer system - A modified Gordon-Taylor approach

Two plasticizers namely, glycerol and xylitol, based on their similar molecular size (6.3 A) but different molecular weights (Glycerol-92; Xylitol-152) were selected for studying the glass-transition behaviour (rubber like behaviour) in multi-plasticized starch biopolymer with about 70% amylopectin...
