Abstract
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is one of the most promising renewable polymers to be employed in the automotive sector1. The reactive blending with polycarbonate (PC) in the presence of a catalyst was demonstrated to be a successful strategy2-3. The addition of cellulosic fibers having different aspect ratio to these blends allowed the improvement of elastic modulus. The composites were prepared by laboratory extrusion and characterized in terms of chemical, morphological ad thermo-mechanical propertiesFile in questo prodotto:
