Optimising properties of poly(lactic acid) blends through co-continuous phase morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This PhD project investigated the effects of a co-continuous phase structure on the ductility of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) blends. An empirical model was used to predict the phase inversion point of the blends.

Biodegradable starch-based films containing saturated fatty acids: thermal, infrared and raman spectroscopic characterization

open access: yesPolímeros
Biodegradable films of thermoplastic starch and poly (butylene adipate co-terephthalate) (PBAT) containing fatty acids were characterized thermally and with infrared and Raman spectroscopies. The symmetrical character of the benzene ring in PBAT provided
