Exploring the effects of fermented chitin nanowhiskers on tensile and thermal properties of poly(ethylene glycol) modified polylactic acid nanocomposites
The incorporation of fermented chitin nanowhiskers (FCHW) into poly(lactic acid) (PLA) increased the tensile modulus and strength of PLA at the expense of ductility. The brittleness of PLA can be overcome with the use of plasticizer such as polyethylene glycols (PEG). The objective of this study is...
