Nucleation and plasticization with recycled low‐molecular‐weight poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate toughens virgin poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2018
ABSTRACTPoly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a widely distributed carbon storage molecule in prokaryotes and can serve as a biodegradable plastic replacement. However, the handling and material properties of virgin PHB are not as robust as some traditional petroleum‐based plastics.
