The Effect of Poly (Ethylene Glycol) Emulation on the Degradation of PLA/Starch Composites

The Effect of Poly (Ethylene Glycol) Emulation on the Degradation of PLA/Starch Composites

As a hydrophilic renewable polymer, starch has been widely used in biocompatible plastics as a filler for more than two decades. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG), as a plasticizer, on the physicochemical properties of a hybrid composite—polylactic aci...
