Ultrahigh performance polylactide achieved by the design of molecular structure

Poor melt strength and crystalline properties are the key barrier for polylactide (PLA) toward broader applications. Long chain branched PLA (LCB-PLA) with high foamability and heat resistance are prepared by employing dual-functional 4-vinylbenzyl glycidyl ether (VBGE) as branching coagent with cyc...
