Compatibilization of PLA/PBAT blends by using Epoxy‐POSS

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2018
ABSTRACTPoly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) blends were compatibilized using epoxidized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (Epoxy‐POSS). Three different Epoxy‐POSS types were utilized having mono‐, tri‐, and multi‐epoxides per POSS cage.

Effect of Dialkyl Peroxide Blending on Tensile Properties of PLA/PBAT Polymer Alloys

Engineering Transactions, 2014
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(butylene adipate/terephthalate) (PBAT) were used for polymer alloys, and the effects of the mixing ratio of PLA and PBAT and the addition of dialkyl peroxide (compatibilizing agent) were examined. The stress-strain curves

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications

Packaging Technology and Science, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 685-695, June 2026.
Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and
