Compositions including various combinations of a starch, a plasticizer for the starch, a crystalline or crystallizable material, and an amphiphilic material for use as binders for coatings for paper and other surfaces are presented. Examples of such compositions include combinations of a starch and a crystalline or crystallizable material; a starch, a crystalline or crystallizable material, and a plasticizer; a starch, a plasticizer, a crystalline or crystallizable material, and an amphiphilic material; a starch, a crystalline or crystallizable material, and an amphiphilic material; a starch and an amphiphilic material. Also described are printable surfaces including a base material with the compositions for use as binder coatings described herein included within or coated on the base material. Further described are methods of making paper that include providing a base material and applying a composition for use as a binder coating as described herein onto the base material.
