Characterization of Different Chemical Blowing Agents and Their Applicability to Produce Poly(Lactic Acid) Foams by Extrusion
This study presents the applicability of different types (exothermic and endothermic) of chemical blowing agents (CBAs) in the case of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). The amount of foaming agent is a fixed 2 wt%. We used a twin-screw extruder and added the individual components in the form of dry mixture t...
