International Classification:
C08L 51/06
Abstract:
A poly alpha-1,3-glucan compound comprising: a) poly alpha-1,3-glucan, and b) a functionalized polyolefin; wherein said poly alpha-1,3-glucan compound comprises from 0.5 to 70 weight percent of poly alpha-1,3-glucan, based on the total weight of poly alpha-1,3-glucan (a) and functionalized polyolefin (b) in the poly alpha-1,3-glucan compound and wherein said functionalized polyolefin is grafted onto the poly alpha-1,3-glucan. These poly alpha-1,3-glucan compounds have many uses including films for packaging applications and as elastomers for automotive applications.
