Miscibility, mechanical, and thermal properties of polylactic acid/polypropylene carbonate (PLA/PPC) blends prepared by melt-mixing method

In this project, Polylactic acid (PLA) and Polypropylene carbonate (PPC) blends were prepared using melt-mixing method to overcome its brittleness. The tensile test results showed that the elongation at break increased from 6% of the neat PLA to 13% as 7.5% of PPC was added. A more significant incre...
