Starch is a versatile and useful polymer, not only because it is a cheap, natural material but also because of the ease with which its physicochemical properties can be altered through various treatments. This chapter provides up-to-date information about starch and its structure–property relationships. The complexes of starch with other components, starch hydrolysis, starch modification methods, industrial production of starches and their uses are also discussed.
