Abstract: Polylactide (PLA) becomes brittle shortly after physical aging, posing significant challenges for practical applications. This issue can be effectively overcome through a pre‐melt‐stretching process, known as mechanical rejuvenation. However, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood… read more here.
