Owing to its excellent mechanical properties, processability, and biodegradability, poly
(lactic acid)(PLA) has been widely investigated in the past few decades as a biomaterial …

Cellulose nanomaterials (CNMs) are a class of materials that have recently garnered
attention in fields as varied as structural materials, biomaterials, rheology modifiers …

Currently, it is challenging to produce biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) composite with
both high strength and great ductility. In this work, lignin-containing cellulose nanofibrils …

In this work, an innovative PLA/CNF nanocomposite foam with a bimodal cell structure is
prepared by a simple one-step depressurization foaming process using only supercritical …

Improving the processability and physical properties of sustainable biobased polymers
using biobased fillers is essential to preserve its biodegradability and make them suitable for …

Today, the world is facing a great problem of plastic pollution due to its non-degradable
nature. Alternatively, polylactic acid (PLA), a bio-based and biodegradable polymer, is …

Polylactic acid (PLA), a potential alternative material for single use plastics, generally
portrays a slow crystallization rate during melt-processing. The use of a nanomaterial such …

Maleic anhydride (MAH) was used as the grafting monomer, which was prepared by melt
grafting reaction in the twin screw extruder with dicumyl peroxide (DCP) as the initiator …

In the present study, very small concentrations of CNCs and CNFs were melt-compounded
into PLA using a solvent-free process where poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) was used to …

The influence of additives such as natural-based plasticiser acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC),
CaCO3 and lignin-coated cellulose nanocrystals (L-CNC) on the biodegradation of …
