A review of research and application of polylactic acid composites

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 140(7)

Published: Dec. 1, 2022

Abstract Polylactic acid (PLA) is a thermoplastic polyester that has received widespread attention for its environmentally friendly origin and excellent performance, potential to address the current problems of severe white pollution scarcity petroleum resources. This article focuses on synthesis, modification, degradation application PLA. The main focus modification PLA with different materials (natural organic materials, biodegradable polymers, inorganic minerals) in blends defects such as brittleness In addition, applications composites fields construction, medical, packaging oil water separation are also introduced, which hopefully will provide some help promotion

A review on PLA-based biodegradable materials for biomedical applications

Giant, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 18, P. 100261 - 100261

Published: April 4, 2024

Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer gaining popularity as replacement for conventional plastics in different industrial sectors. However, PLA has inherent limitations and requires modifications to enhance its performance. This review article covers the important aspects related such synthesis route of PLA, biodegradation mechanism properties applications The main focus this identify innovative copolymers, blends composites biomedical applications. Most characteristics degradation behavior, biocompatibility mechanical these PLA-based polymers were briefly discussed. indicates that optimization processing techniques suitable selection additives play an role achieve desired PLA. also discusses issues associated materials

Degradation of biodegradable plastics in waste management systems and the open environment: A critical review

Journal of Cleaner Production, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 434, P. 140000 - 140000

Published: Dec. 2, 2023

Decades of extensive and exponentially growing production use conventional plastics have led to the accumulation plastic waste in environment, contributing anthropocene pressure on ecosystems. Bioplastics (defined as bio-based and/or biodegradable plastics) been promoted a more sustainable alternative substitute for plastics. Nonetheless, literature contains numerous conflicting conclusions regarding their suitability environmental implications. One central point contention concerns biodegradability conditions necessary proper degradation. In real-world settings, like anaerobic digestion plants or marine environments, may not degrade rapidly efficiently suggested by laboratory tests. A systematic review was conducted explore current level knowledge fate consequences plastics, thereby substantiating discussions future role society. The covered degradation management environments (e.g., compost, sludge, landfill) open environment seawater, freshwater, soil). As clearly highlighted this review, comparisons quantitative analysis data are challenged significant methodological variations, encompassing differences testing methods, test materials, quantification strategies. Moreover, revealed several research gaps, highlighting, particular, need i) intensify polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), succinate (PBS) match polylactic acid (PLA) starch-based ii) develop standard methods field conditions, iii) couple with ecotoxicological overview established is essential thorough evaluation performance Furthermore, findings study contribute supporting responsible various products, including assessing alternatives
