2. Development of PLA-based polymer compositions for the automotive industry
The developments presented here aim to optimize the thermomechanical properties of PLA-based compositions to make them compatible with technical automotive applications. Two avenues of research are presented: the modification of PLA as a single matrix, then in a blend with a polymer of higher thermal stability (in this case PMMA).
2.1 Techniques for modifying PLA properties
A plasticizer is a monomeric, oligomeric, polymeric or mixed compound...
