Abstract
ABSTRACTMg-Al layered double hydroxide decorated starch bionanocomposites (starch/layered double hydroxide) are prepared by solution intercalation method. The bionanocomposites are systematically characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy techniques. The thermal stability of starch is enhanced due to dispersion of layered double hydroxide within the starch matrix. The chemical resistance property of starch is improved substantially with slight sacrifice in biodegradation behavior by the delamination of layered double hydroxide in starch matrix. Herein, layered double hydroxide acts as potential laminated filler for change in structural, thermal, and chemical resistance properties of starch with little sacrifice in biodegradable behavior.
