Abstract
⺠We successfully develop thermoplastic starch derived from sugar palm tree. ⺠We examine that the addition of glycerol decrease the Tg of plasticized SPS. ⺠The mechanical properties of plasticized SPS increase with increasing of glycerol. ⺠The water absorption of plasticized SPS decrease with increasing of glycerol. ⺠We investigate the morphological fracture through scanning electron microscopy.
