Expanded PLA Bead Foaming: Analysis of Crystallization Kinetics and Development of a Novel Technology

Bead foam technology with a double crystal-melting peak structure has been well established for polyolefins. The double crystal melting peak structure, which is required in the molding stage of the bead foams, generates a strong sintering among the foamed beads and maintains the overall foam structu...
