Influence of time and room temperature on mechanical and thermal degradation of poly(lactic) acid
Poly(lactic) acid (PLA), is a compostable thermoplastic which degrades fast under composting conditions of microorganisms, high humidity, and temperatures. However, PLA degrades slowly below its glass transition temperature and in low humidity, hence, when used as short-shelf life product containers...
