Improvements in the Rheological Properties, Impact Strength, and the Biodegradability of PLA/PCL Blend Compatibilized by Electron-Beam Irradiation in the Presence of a Reactive Agent
In this study, we blended poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) into poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and compatibilized these PLA/PCL blends by electron-beam irradiation in the presence of a reactive agent to overcome drawbacks of PLA. To produce compatibilized blends, mixtures of the PLA/PCL/reactive agent were prepa...
