COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING THE EXTRUSION CHARACTERISTICS OF AQUEOUS STARCH-POLYMER MIXTURES

摘要

A method for improving the extrusion characteristics of finely divided aqueous starch-polymer mixtures comprising subjecting the admixture to de-aeration and compaction to form a hard shaped form therefrom, milling the hard shaped form of starch and polymer admixture to form granules. Granules of selected size are then coated with a lubricating compound.
