Hydroxypropylsulfonation/Caproylation of Cornstarch to Enhance Its Adhesion to PLA Fibers for PLA Sizing

The impact of hydroxypropylsulfonation/caproylation on the adhesion of cornstarch to polylactic acid (PLA) fibers was investigated for ameliorating the applications such as PLA sizing. The hydroxypropylsulfonated and caproylated cornstarch (HCS) samples with different degrees of substitution (DS) we...
