PHBV-graft-GMA via reactive extrusion and its use in PHBV/nanocellulose crystal composites

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2019
Reactive extrusion was used for dicumyl peroxide (DCP)-initiated grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) to poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV). The effects of GMA and DCP content and their weight ratio on the GMA grafting percentage (GP%), the polymer melt viscosity, and the PHBV molecular weight were investigated.

Unidirectional Rubber-Toughened Green Composites Based on PHBV [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2019
The large-scale entry of bio-based polymers, such as poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-valerate) (PHBV), in applications commonly occupied by petroleum-based plastics is heavily limited by their poorer mechanical properties, thus, hindering efforts to reduce harmful plastic waste.
