Widening the Application Range of PLA‐Based Thermoplastic Materials through the Synthesis of PLA‐Polyether Block Copolymers: Thermal, Tensile, and Rheological Properties

Widening the Application Range of PLA‐Based Thermoplastic Materials through the Synthesis of PLA‐Polyether Block Copolymers: Thermal, Tensile, and Rheological Properties

Abstract Polyethylene glycol (PEG), polypropylene glycol (PPG), and poly(ethylene glycol‐co‐propylene glycol) (PEPG) of number average molar masses (Mn) of 6–20 kDa are used as macroinitiators in the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of l‐lactide to synthesize high molar mass (50 kDa < MnCopo <...
