Comparative study on the films of poly(vinyl alcohol)/pea starch nanocrystals and poly(vinyl alcohol)/native pea starch
TL;DR: In this paper, two series of films were prepared by blending poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with NPS and PSN, respectively, and the results revealed that PSN had much smaller sizes and dispersed more homogeneously in PVA matrix, resulting in stronger interactions with PVA.
