Efficient homogeneous synthesis of pure starch stearate useful as thermoplastic, basis for hot melt adhesive and to prepare films etc. by extrusion.
Melting temperature depends on the degree of substitution and can be controlled in a wide range. The samples possess a degree of substitution of about 1 and melt in the range from 100 – 130°C completely.
