Semicrystalline polymers products usually adopt a crystallized form in their end-use
environment. These crystallized polymers undergo various deformations under different …

In the past two decades, synthetic biodegradable and biobased polyesters have emerged as
a sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-derived polymers for diverse range of …

The widely used plastic products which became a part of our everyday life are produced
almost entirely from crude oil. There are various estimates on oil resources, but there is an …

Aliphatic polyesters, which can be obtained from bacterial or chemical synthesis, are
emerging as an important class of biodegradable and biocompatible polymers for …

Because of the increasing incidence of coronary artery disease, the importance of
cardiovascular stents has continuously increased as a treatment of this disease …

Poly (lactic acid) is at present the most promising and commercially available bio‐based and
biocompostable (bio) plastic. The properties of PLA, however, are rather poor, notably its low …

The crystal structure model of stereocomplex between poly (l-lactic acid)(PLLA) and poly (d-
lactic acid)(PDLA) with the L/D ratio of 50/50 was proposed by several groups [the space …

Abstract Poly (l-lactic acid)(PLLA) based piezoelectric polymers are gradually becoming the
substitute for the conventional piezoelectric ceramic and polymeric materials due to their low …

The blends of low molecular weight triacetin (TAC) and oligomeric poly (1, 3‐butylene glycol
adipate)(PBGA) were used as multiple plasticizers to lubricate poly (lactic acid)(PLA) in this …

Poly‑l‑lactic acid (PLLA) is a promising bone repair material because of its good
biocompatibility and natural degradability. Nevertheless, the poor mechanical properties …
