Abstract: This paper reports a flexible poly(l-lactide)-b-polyethylene glycol-b-poly(l-lactide) (PLLA-PEG-PLLA) melt blended with a thermoplastic starch (TPS). The crystallization, thermal stability, phase morphology and mechanical properties of PLLA-PEG-PLLA/TPS blends were evaluated and compared to PLLA/TPS blends. Addition… read more here.

Abstract: Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) is a promising candidate as a bioplastic because of its non-toxicity and biodegradability. However, the low flexibility of PLLA limits its use in many applications. Poly(L-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(L-lactide) (PLLA-b-PEG-b-PLLA) block copolymer is of interest… read more here.
