Application of Pyrene Fluorescence to the Characterization of Hydrophobically Modified Starch Nanoparticles
Kim, Damin; Amos, Ryan; Gauthier, Mario; Duhamel, Jean (American Chemical Society, 2018-06-25)Several aspects of pyrene fluorescence were applied to gain an insight into the nature of the microdomains in hydrophobically modified starch nanoparticles (HM-SNPs), prepared by reacting SNPs with propionic and hexanoic ... -
Hydrophobic Modification of Starch
Amos, Ryan (University of Waterloo, 2019-08-27)Starch is a very common polysaccharide with multiple applications in the industry, but the range of physical properties exhibited by that material is relatively limited due to its strongly hydrophilic character. The work ...
