Preparation and characterization of dicarboxylic acid modified starch-clay composites as carriers for pesticide delivery

Modified starch based composites were prepared with bentonite/organobentonite for their potential use as carriers for pesticide delivery. Soluble starch was esterified with dicarboxylic acid chlorides. Mean degree of substitution of modified starches varied from 0.101 to 0.353. Composites were prepa...
