Improving the Toughness of Poly (L-lactic acid) by Interpenetrating Network Structure
Abstract:
An interpenetrating polymer network was formed by blending of PLLA and PEG cross-linked β-CD to improve the toughness of PLLA, and the mechanical properties of PLLA composites were studied using tensile test. The PLLA composite samples exhibited a single glass transition and their Tg values decreased with increasing PEG/β-CD content, indicating that PLLA and PEG/β-CD are miscible. The PLLA composite samples aged at room temperature achieved the highest fracture strain (about 235%), about 40 times that of the original PLLA sample, while the Young's modulus was not seriously hampered.
