【 摘 要 】

PP film/starch blend at different ratio of composition and various amount of Amylopectin-grafted-Poly (Hexyl methacrylate) (Ap-g-PHMA) as bio compatible agent were prepared by blending method. In this study PP/starch blends were obtain 0.6% and 1% Ap-g-PHMA were processed in Rheomix. The structure characteristic, melt flow index (MFI) and thermal properties of the films product were characterized by Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy (FTIR), Simultaneous Thermal Analysis (STA). The experimental result indicated that addition of Ap-g-PHMA to the PP/starch blend resulting in increased of MFI values more than three times, raised of starch content in PP matrix, and reduced crystallinity degree.
