Evaluation of Dynamic Compressive Properties of Pla/Pbat Polymer Alloys Using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Method

Engineering Transactions, 2014
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biodegradable biomass polymer. Polymer blends or polymer alloys have been used to overcome its brittleness. Because poly(butylene/adipate/terephthalate) (PBAT) is a ductile and biodegradable polymer, PLA/PBAT polymer alloys ...
