Summary: Several rubber/starch composites in which the starch particles are in an amorphous state and are smaller than 1 μm, prepared by directly mixing and co‐coagulating rubber latex and starch paste, exhibit higher hardness, stress at 100%, tensile strength, and tear strength relative to the corresponding rubber/starch composites prepared by direct blending.TEM micrograph of starch/SBR composite.
