Abstract
It is important to develop biodegradable plastics by utilizing natural substances. Natural polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose are biomass existing abundantly on earth. Saccharide is a good source of organic raw material (Lichtenthaler, 1991). But many problems arise regarding thermolastic, moisture proof and compatibility properties when these polysaccharides are used as materials of plastics.
