Constrained Amorphous Interphase and Mechanical Properties of Poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate-co-3-Hydroxyvalerate)

In the present study, for the first time the evolution of tensile mechanical properties of different poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymers (PHBV8 and PHBV12, with 8 mol% and 12 mol% of HV co-units, respectively) as a function of the storage time at room temperature has been investi...
