Synthesis and Characterization of Linear and Branched Polylactic Acid for Use in Food Packaging Applications
Polylactic acid (PLA) resins of various molecular weights and molecular weight distributions were synthesized. Linear, narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD) PLA resins were synthesized, as well as resins containing both high molecular weight branched structures and low molecular weight chains a...
