[EN] To use shape memory materials based on poly (lactic acid) (PLA) for medical applications is essential to tune their transition temperature (T-trans) near to the human body temperature. In this study, the combination ...
[EN] Electrospun biobased and biodegradable nanocomposites for sustainable flexible films were developed. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was blended with 25 wt% of poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) to produce bead-less fibers and ...
The processing and characterization of biodegradable nanocomposites based on poly(ester-urethane) reinforced with different amounts (0.5, 1 and 3 wt %) of nanosized hydroxyapatite (nHA) are reported. The selected ...
In this paper the processing and properties of flexible electrospun biocomposites based on poly(lactic acid) (PLA) blended with 25 wt% of poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), plasticized with 15 wt% of acetyl(tributyl citrate) ...
[EN] In this work, antimicrobial and antioxidant films based on ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer containing low amounts of ferulic acid (FA) were successfully developed by melt extrusion. Optically transparent films ...
[EN] Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is one of the most commonly employed synthetic biopolymers for facing plastic waste problems. Despite its numerous strengths, its inherent brittleness, low toughness, and thermal stability, as ...
[EN] Antimicrobial packaging has emerged as an efficient technology to improve the stability of food products. In this study, new formulations based on ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer were developed by incorporating ...
