Hydrolysis Characteristics of Biodegradable Plastic(Poly Lactic Acid).

Functional Properties of Biodegradable Nanocomposites from Poly Lactic Acid (PLA)

Nanocomposite composed of organoclay(Cloisite 20A-C20A) and Poly lactic acid (PLA) was prepared by solvent casting method. Physical, mechanical, thermal, barrier and microstructure properties of the composite were studied. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scannin...

Acid hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse for lactic acid production.

In order to use sugarcane bagasse as a substrate for lactic acid production, optimum conditions for acid hydrolysis of the bagasse were investigated. After lignin extraction, the conditions were varied in terms of hydrochloric (HCl) or sulfuric (H(2)SO(4)) concentration (0.5-5%, v/v), reaction time (1-5h) and incubation temperature (90-120 degrees C). The maximum catalytic efficiency (E) was 10...

functional properties of biodegradable nanocomposites from poly lactic acid (pla)

nanocomposite composed of organoclay(cloisite 20a-c20a) and poly lactic acid (pla) was prepared by solvent casting method. physical, mechanical, thermal, barrier and microstructure properties of the composite were studied. x-ray diffraction (xrd) patterns and scanning electron microscopy (sem) images revealed that the diffraction peak of nanoclay shifted to lower angles and the d-spacing betwee...
