Multiple actions of poly(ethylene octene) grafted with glycidyl methacrylate on the performance of poly(lactic acid)

Poly(ethylene octene) grafted with glycidyl methacrylate (POE-g-GMA) was employed to improve the rheological and thermal properties, toughness, and foaming behaviors of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) through a chain extension effect.

Fully biobased robust biocomposites of PLA with assisted nucleation by monodispersed stereocomplexed polylactide particles

Fully biodegradable biocomposites are a desirable choice among the synthetic plastics due to their increasing adverse ecological issues.

Transcrystallization of poly(l-lactic acid) on the surface of reduced graphene oxide fibers

Transcrystalline layer could form between rGOF and PLLA. The good nucleating ability of rGOF could be quantitatively characterized based on the theories of heterogeneous nucleation and crystal growth rate.
