Microcellular extrusion foaming of poly(lactide)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) blends

Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2010
Foamed poly(lactide) (PLA)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) blends were processed via the microcellular extrusion process using CO2 as a blowing agent. Talc has been added to promote heterogeneous nucleation. Two types of PLA/PBAT blend systems were investigated: Ecovio, which is a commercially available compatibilized PLA/PBAT blend; and

Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) Polyester Synthesis Process and Product Development

Polymer Science, Series C, 2021
Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) is a well-known aliphatic-aromatic biodegradable random co-polyester that is structurally composed of a chemical unit of butylene adipate and butylene terephthalate. It can be synthesized by a polycondensation reaction in the melt stage.

Electron beam-induced crosslinking of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2010
Abstract Biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) was crosslinked by electron beam irradiation and their properties were investigated in this research. PBAT films prepared by a solution casting method were crosslinked by electron beam under various absorbed doses ranging 20–200 kGy and their properties were characterized by using ...

Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) scaffolds: processing, structural characteristics and cellular responses

Journal of Biomaterials Science, Polymer Edition, 2016
The aliphatic-aromatic copolyester, poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) combines good mechanical and thermal properties with biodegradation ability. However, until now, researches in its potential medical use remain limited. Only in a few studies blends of PBAT with routinely used biocompatible polymers had been prepared and investigated ...

Morphology and mechanical properties of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/potato starch blends in the presence of synthesized reactive compatibilizer or modified poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2015
The biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT)/thermoplastic starch (TPS) composite has received considerable attention because of the environmental concerns raised by solid waste disposal. However, the application of PBAT/TPS blends was limited due to the poor mechanical properties originating from the incompatibility between PBAT and

Reactive Blends of Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) and Thermoplastic Starch

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
The blend of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and thermoplastic starch (TPS) are a promising way to get a new class of bio-compostible plastic, balance the cost effective issue and good mechanical properties. Blends of both polymers are immiscible in nature.

Transesterification effects on miscibility polycarbonate/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) blends

Polymer Bulletin, 2011
The effects of transesterification on the miscibility of polycarbonate (PC)/poly(butylenes adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) blends were investigated. The PC/PBAT blends were prepared with a twin-screw extruder, and then annealed at 260 °C for 5 h to trigger the transesterification reaction.

Biodegradable Poly(butylene succinate) and Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) Blends: Reactive Extrusion and Performance Evaluation

Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2014
Two biodegradable polyesters, poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) were melt-compounded in a twin screw extruder to fabricate a novel PBS/PBAT blend. The compatibility of the blend was attributed to the transesterification reaction that was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The Gibbs free

Biodegradable compatibilizer modified corn stover/poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) composites

Polymer Composites
AbstractGreat environmental and economic benefits can be achieved by utilizing the agricultural residue corn stover (CS) to prepare the biodegradable poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) composites. However, CS contains polarized hydroxyl groups from its main component cellulose, thus leading to its poor wetting by hydrophobic PBAT.
