Correlación entre las propiedades macro, micro y nanomecánicas en polímeros termoplásticos biodegradables

[EN] In this work a study of the mechanical properties of a biodegradable polymer, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), and its variation due to the addition of 25 wt % of another biodegradable polymer, poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is presented. The PLA sample and the PLA-PHB (75:25) blend were characterized in...

Sumario:[EN] In this work a study of the mechanical properties of a biodegradable polymer, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), and its variation due to the addition of 25 wt % of another biodegradable polymer, poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is presented. The PLA sample and the PLA-PHB (75:25) blend were characterized in terms of their mechanical properties by means of tensile test measurements, microhardness and nanoindentation with the aim of providing a comprehensive approach of the mechanical properties of these materials to facilitate the students of material science understanding the mechanical properties of biodegradable polymers.
