DOI: 10.1016/j.compositesb.2019.107028
Abstract: Abstract Different ratios of poly(lactic acid)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PLA/PBAT) blends were prepared by melt blending in the presence of a multifunctional epoxy oligomers as reactive compatibilizer. During reactive blending, the compatibilizer could react with PLA and… read more here.
