Effect of poly(lactic acid) crystallization on its mechanical and heat resistance performances

Bomou Ma et al.

Summary: The study investigated the relationship between crystal structure and thermal, mechanical performance of PLA by preparing specimens fully crystallized at different temperatures. It was found that crystallization effectively enhances heat resistance but excessive temperature can lead to aggregation of crystalline and amorphous regions, resulting in decreased mechanical performance. Molecular dynamics simulations were used to reveal the mechanism behind this relationship.

Alternative optimization routes for improving the performance of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) based plastics

Demetres Briassoulis et al.

Summary: Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), a group of bio-based polymeric materials formed by microorganisms, include the well-known member Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). Despite PHB's high biodegradability and biocompatibility, its low ductility and susceptibility to thermal degradation limit its applications. Alternative strategies such as modification and blending are needed to enhance the performance of PHB for producing bio-based plastics with improved properties.

Films Based on Mater-Bi(R) Compatibilized with Pine Resin Derivatives: Optical, Barrier, and Disintegration Properties

Miguel Aldas et al.

Summary: Mater-Bi(R) NF866 was blended with gum rosin and its pentaerythritol esters to produce compostable films for food packaging or agricultural mulch films. The additives affected the color, optical properties, and oxygen barrier of the films, while also increasing the hydrophobicity of the MB. The study demonstrated the potential of these biobased films in various applications.

Improving the ductility and heat deflection temperature of injection molded Poly(lactic acid) products: A comprehensive review

Tamas Tabi et al.

Summary: Petroleum-based plastics are widely used, but there is an increasing demand for bioplastics made from renewable resources. While bioplastics such as PLA have the potential to replace traditional petroleum-based plastics, their properties may not always be adequate. PLA is one of the most promising bioplastics, but its properties need to be modified to enable widespread industrial application.
