Tuning the Structure–Property Relationships in Binary and Ternary Blends of PLA/PBAT/PHBH (2024)
Journal Article
Nofar, M., Salehiyan, R., & Barletta, M. (2024). Tuning the Structure–Property Relationships in Binary and Ternary Blends of PLA/PBAT/PHBH. Polymers, 16(12), Article 1699. https://doi.org/10.3390/polym16121699

While the brittle polylactide (PLA) has a high durability among bioplastics, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH) with certain ductility exhibits facile compostability. The addition of polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) may als... Read More about Tuning the Structure–Property Relationships in Binary and Ternary Blends of PLA/PBAT/PHBH.
