Enhancing the flexibility and thermal properties of polylactic acid/thermoplastic starch blends through selective plasticization

This study investigates the impact of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) as plasticizers on the mechanical, microstructural, thermal, and crystalline properties of polylactic acid/thermoplastic starch (PLA/TPS) blends. While plasticization reduced tensile and Izod impact stre...
