On the Mechanical and Thermal Behavior of PLA, PBAT, and PHBV‐Based Ternary Blends and the Effect of Short Flax Fibers as Reinforcing Agents

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Preparation and testing of biodegradable polymer ternary blends and composites with short flax fibres. ABSTRACT Bioplastics offer environmental benefits but they are costly and exhibit lower mechanical and thermal performance compared to fossil‐based counterparts. Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) exhibits high ductility but relatively low
