Biomacromolecules, 2007•ACS PublicationsMonocrystalline starch nanoparticles were successfully grafted with poly (tetrahydrofuran),
poly (caprolactone), and poly (ethylene glycol) monobutyl ether chains using toluene 2, 4-
diisocyanate as a linking agent. Surface grafting was confirmed using Fourier transform
infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, differential scanning calorimetry, elemental
analysis, and contact angle measurements. Transmission electron microscopy observations

Monocrystalline starch nanoparticles were successfully grafted with poly(tetrahydrofuran), poly(caprolactone), and poly(ethylene glycol) monobutyl ether chains using toluene 2,4-diisocyanate as a linking agent. Surface grafting was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, differential scanning calorimetry, elemental analysis, and contact angle measurements. Transmission electron microscopy observations of modified starch nanocrystals showed either the individualization of nanoparticles or the formation of a film, depending on the polymer used. It was shown that grafting efficiency decreased with the length of the polymeric chains, as expected. The resulting modified nanoparticles can find applications in the field of co-continuous nanocomposite materials.
