Optimization and fabrication of pure poly lactic acid (PLA) using hot press compression moulding

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...

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) Nanofibers for Bone Tissue Engineering

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 betwe...

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...

Fabrication and surface modification of poly lactic acid (PLA) scaffolds with epidermal growth factor for neural tissue engineering

In an effort to design biomaterials that may promote repair of the central nervous system, 3-dimensional scaffolds made of electrospun poly lactic acid nanofibers with interconnected pores were fabricated. These scaffolds were functionalized with polyallylamine to introduce amine groups by wet chemistry. Experimental conditions of the amination protocol were thoroughly studied and selected to i...
