Manufacture of Partially Biodegradable Composite Materials Based on PLA-Tires Powder: Process and Characterization

This research work focuses on the processability and mechanical characterization of blends of polylactic acid (PLA) and tire (elastomeric part). Wasted tires used as filler in the PLA matrix were reduced by two different processes (thermal shock and pyrolysis) in order to acquire the solid residuals...
