Foam Injection Molded Stereocomplex PLA : Processing, Thermal Behavior and Foam Structure
In this study, the processing of stereocomplex poly(lactic acid) (sc‐PLA) via continuous compounding followed by thermoplastic foam injection molding (FIM) is investigated. Various nucleating agents are compounded with a mixture of poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) and poly(D‐lactide) (PDLA). The crystalline material structures...
