The objective of this work was to determine the compatibilization effect of different concentrations of maleic anhydride (MA) in poly(lactic acid) blended with epoxidized natural rubber (PLA/ENR). ENR-grafted MA [ENR-g-MA] was synthesized using four concentrations of MA: 0.15, 0.30, 0.45, and 0.60 phr. Using an internal mixer, binary (PLA/ENR, PLA/ENR-g-MA) and ternary (PLA/ENR/ENR-g-MA) polymer blends were prepared with a constant rubber content of 10 wt %. ENR impaired the mechanical properties of PLA, perhaps due to the relatively large size of the rubber particles. The compatibilization effect of MA was evaluated from the results of impact strength testing. ENR-g-MA was a toughening agent for PLA when the concentration of MA was in the range of 0.30-0.60 phr. MA increased miscibility between PLA and ENR. This effect was indicated in the blends by reductions in rubber particle size, the glass transition temperature of PLA, and the alpha-transition temperatures of PLA and ENR. In the binary polymer blends, the MA concentration in ENR-g-MA that produced the optimal mechanical properties of PLA was 0.60 phr. In the ternary blends, mechanical properties of PLA did not improve at any concentration of MA in ENR-g-MA. (c) 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019, 136, 48297.
