Film blowing of PHBV blends and PHBV‐based multilayers for the production of biodegradable packages [PDF]
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2015 ABSTRACTPoly(hydroxy butyrate‐co‐valerate) (PHBV) is a biodegradable polymer that is difficult to melt process into films. Such difficulty is mirrored in the lack of literature on film blowing of PHBV‐ or PHBV‐based materials. To circumvent this problem, 70/30 wt % blends of PHBV with a biodegradable compound (PBSebT), or with poly(butylene adipate‐co ...

Cartilage tissue engineering using PHBV and PHBV/Bioglass scaffolds
Molecular Medicine Reports, 2014 Scaffolds have an important role in cartilage tissue engineering. Poly(hydroxybutyrate‑co‑hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) has been demonstrated to have potential as a scaffold for the three dimensional construction of engineered cartilage tissue. However, the poor hydrophilicity and mechanical strength associated with PHBV affects its clinical applications as ...

Express Polymer Letters, 2019 The morphology, crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PLA, PHBV and their blends and nanocomposites with TiO2 as filler were investigated. An uncommon morphological change was observed with increasing PLA content in the blends, and this complicated the isothermal crystallization kinetics analyses of the different samples.

Properties of Luffa Fiber Reinforced PHBV Biodegradable Composites [PDF]
Polymers, 2019 In this study, composites of poly (hydroxybutyrate-co-valerate) (PHBV) with untreated luffa fibers (ULF) and NaOH-H2O2 treated luffa fibers (TLF) were prepared by hot press forming. The properties of luffa fibers (LFs) and composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and other ...
