Abstract

Starch is known for its distinct advantages, and it is biodegradable and sustainable. The ample hydroxyl groups providing this biopolymer with hydrophobic characteristics. Modification attempt of natural rubber is aimed to overcome rubber limitation properties by sterically stabilized rubber particles with starch. The potential of this modification to be carried out is due to the presence of active functional groups. However, polarity differences between starch and natural rubber are one of the challenges. These studies proposed non-conventional electrolysis called Glow Discharge Electrolysis Plasma (GDEP). Our investigation has shown that the increase of starch composition in the GDEP system increases the production yield of the starch/natural rubber hybrid copolymer. This copolymerization successfully improved the hydrophilicity of hybrid material. The contact angle of starch 50wt%/ natural rubber is up to 50o. Starch thermal properties mostly dictate the thermal stability of this new hybrid copolymer with an improvement due to the newly formed bond between starch and natural rubber.
