In this study, N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) with certain concentration ranges of lithium chloride (LiCl) was used to plasticize starch by melting extrusion. Solid state ionic conductors, DMAc-plasticized starch containing LiCl also had a potential application as solid biopolymer electrolytes. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that many remanent starch granules embed in DMAc-plasticized starch matrix. With increasing LiCl content, the number of remanent starch granules decreased dramatically and homogeneous thermoplastic starch (TPS) could be achieved. Moreover, Fourier Transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy revealed that LiCl could increase the interaction between starch and plasticizers. In addition, the supermolecular structure of starch was destructed by LiCl detected by wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) respectively. Finally, LiCl not only could increase the water absorption of TPS, but also improved the conductance of TPS. The conductance of TPS with 18 wt% LiCl content could achieve to 10(−0.5) S cm(−1) at 18 wt% water content.
