Abstract:Oxidized starch is an environmentally friendly sizing agent, but lacks adhesion to polyester yarns. In this study, hyperbranched poly(trimellitic glyceride)/oxidized starch (PTG/OS) as the composite sizing agent is used for sizing polyester yarns. The properties of sizing film, sizing paste, and sizing yarns are studied. When PTG content ranges from 2 to 10 wt%, tensile strength of PTGs/
