    4. Outlook and developments

    There are various ways of improving the material's thermal stability. One is to increase the crystallinity and/or crystallization rate of PLA-based compositions. As we saw in 3.3 , even a moderate increase in crystallinity can limit the softening of behavior with temperature. Annealing the material enables a significant...
