Efficient Gas Barrier and Antibacterial Properties of Poly(lactic acid) Nanocomposites: Functionalization with Phytic Acid–Cu(II) Loaded Layered Clay

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) represents one of the most promising and attractive bio-based polymers for green packaging. However, toughness, gas barrier and antibacterial properties of pure PLA films cannot compete with those of traditional petroleum-based active packaging plastics. To fill this gap, uti...
