Polylactide (PLA) derived from renewable resources has drawn great interests in packaging,
electronics, and automotive fields because of its biodegradability, high mechanical strength …

The subject on flammability properties of natural fibre-reinforced biopolymer composites has
not been broadly researched. This is not only evidenced by the minimal use of biopolymer …

Polylactic acid (PLA) was regarded as the most prospective sustainable bioplastic in the
field of engineering applications, but its slow crystallization and strong sensitivity to fire …

As a very promising biodegradable polymer, polylactic acid (PLA) has been applied in
various fields. Unfortunately, the disadvantages of flammability and large amounts of molten …

Polylactic acid (PLA) is regarded as one of the most promising sustainable bioplastics in

A bio-flame retardant, calcium magnesium phytate (CaMg-Ph), was synthesized via the
reaction of calcium chloride and magnesium chloride with phytic acid from renewable …

Graphitic carbon nitride/organic aluminum hypophosphites (gC 3 N 4/OAHPi) hybrids, ie,
CPDCPAHPi and CBPODAHPi, were synthesized by esterification and salification reactions …

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a phase change material (PCM) is limited in practical
applications due to the three major drawbacks of low thermal conductivity, poor thermal …

There is a growing drive in replacing conventional non-renewable fibres such as glass and
carbon reinforced composites with more sustainable and renewable reinforcements such as …

For semi-crystalline material such as poly (lactic acid)(PLA), it is not easy to accelerate its
crystallization, let alone to improve the flame retardancy and mechanical properties …
