PLA Based Biopolymer Reinforced with Natural Fibre: A Review
Tapasi Mukherjee,Nhol Kao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of processing methods, fibre length, fibre orientation, fibre-volume fraction, and fibre-surface treatment on the fibre/matrix adhesion and mechanical properties of natural-fibre-reinforced PLA composites are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of linear poly(lactic acid)/polyethylene glycol blends
TL;DR: In this article, linear PLA (L-PLA) was plasticized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) having MW of 1000 g mol−1 in various PEG concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology, electromagnetic properties and electromagnetic interference shielding performance of poly lactide/graphene nanoplatelet nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, X-ray diffraction showed that GNP had a significant effect on the semi-crystalline structure of PLA which was also confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dielectric properties and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of graphene-based biodegradable nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of GNP incorporation on electromagnetic properties and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (SE) of PLA and PBAT was investigated and the applicability of Sihvola's mixing rule of complex electrical permittivity to these nanocomposites was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved dispersion of cellulose microcrystals in polylactic acid (PLA) based composites applying surface acetylation
TL;DR: In this paper, surface modification, one way to facilitate improved dispersion, is carried out by acetyl chloride, which is used in the preparation of composites from renewable materials like micro-crystalline cellulose (MCC) fiber and biopolymer such as polylactic acid (PLA).
