Poly(lactic acid) toughen by aromatic sulfonamide toward balanced rheology processing and mechanical properties

The inherent brittleness of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) usually limits its application in the high ductile requirements sector. To address the above issue, n-ethyl-p-toluenesulfonamide (N-PTSA) as the toughening agent, was utilized to optimize the rheological and mechanical performance of the PLA matrix...
