Plasticizing Effects of Epoxidized Palm Oil on Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate)/Poly(caprolactone) Blends
Poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-valerate) (PHBV), a biodegradable thermoplastic polymer, has attracted much attention because of increasing interest in protection of environment. PHBV is brittle, thus has restricted application. Improvement of its toughness has been attempted by blending poly (caprolactone...
