New non-destructive optical approach to determine the crystallization kinetics of PLA under a CO2 atmosphere with spatial and temporal resolution

The kinetics of crystallization of Polylactic Acid (PLA) in the presence of CO2 pressures from 1.5 to 4 MPa, has been studied by measuring the optical absorbance evolution of the material with time. To perform this study, an own-designed pressure vessel provided with windows has been used. The non-d...
