Selective Depolymerization and Effects of Homolysis of Poly(L-lactic acid) in a Blend with Polypropylene
Blends of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and polypropylene (PP), which are candidates for the practical use of PLLA, were investigated for selective degradation of PLLA, resulting in quantitative conversion of PLLA components into cyclic monomers, lactides, using magnesium oxide (MgO) as a depolymerizat...
