Determination of thermal stability and activation energy of polyvinyl alcohol-cassava starch blends

The thermal degradation and activation energy of polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) blends with cassava starch (CSV) were investigated by thermogravimetry method. Neat PVOH, CSV and PVOH-CSV specimens were prepared by solution casting method. Thermogravimetry is able to provide a clear description about the t...
