Poly (lactic acid) or polylactide (PLA) is a commercial biobased, biodegradable,
biocompatible, compostable and non-toxic polymer that has competitive material and …

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 …

Poly (lactic acid)(PLA) and poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT) were mixed at a
ratio of 40: 60, extruded to form granules and cast into film; then, the PLA, PBAT, and …

In this study, the suitability of natural rubber (NR) toughened poly (lactic acid)(PLA)-based
blends were investigated for additive manufacturing applications. Filaments for fused …

It is recorded that Théophile-Jules Pelouze first synthesized poly (lactic acid)(PLA) by
polycondensation of lactic acid in 1845. 1 In 1932, Wallace Hume Carothers et al …

The present work fits into the stream of study and analysis of biobased and/or biodegradable
materials, considering the need to improve their properties from a technological point of view …

The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to evaluate the polylactide (PLA) content in
PLA/poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PLA/PBAT) blends. The TGA curves of …

The research presented in this article discusses the subject of poly (lactic acid)(PLA)
modification via reactive mixing with the poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT) …

Chitin-nanofibrils are obtained in water suspension at low concentration, as nanoparticles
normally are, to avoid their aggregation. The addition of the fibrils in molten PLA during …

Poly (lactic acid)(PLA) is the most widely produced biobased, biodegradable and
biocompatible polyester. Despite many of its properties are similar to those of common …
