Due to the poor compatibility caused by the large difference in hydrophilicity and interface
between polylactic acid (PLA) and cellulose acetate (CA), the blending of the two materials …

Biodegradable poly (lactic acid)(PLA)/ethylene–methyl acrylate-glycidyl methacrylate
terpolymer (EMG) films were prepared, and the rheological, thermal, mechanical …

Waste paper-reinforced sodium alginate/carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC)-based bio-
composite films were prepared by solution casting method by optimum combination of 1.5 …

Polymer materials based on fossil resources have brought great convenience to various
industries. However, environmental pollution is becoming increasingly conspicuous due to …

Nanocomposites of starch, poly vinyl alcohol (PVOH), and laponite RD (LRD) were
produced by solution mixing and cast into films. In general, an increase in LRD content (0 …

The use of biodegradable polymers for food packaging material is favorable due to its ability
to degrade after use. Nevertheless, the real application of the polymers is still limited due to …

A novel poly (lactic acid)(PLA) based composite, reinforced by microcrystalline cellulose
(MCC) was prepared. MCC was modified by esterification reaction using olive oil for …

Growing concerns regarding plastic waste have prompted various attempts to replace plastic
packaging films with biodegradable alternatives such as poly (lactic acid)(PLA). However …

Abstract Poly (lactic acid)(PLA) is a biodegradable polymer that exhibits high elastic
modulus, high mechanical strength, and feasible processability. However, high cost and …

Starch‐based biodegradable low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) films were used for graft
copolymerization of vinyl acetate with ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in aqueous acidic …
