Effect of citric acid on thermal, phase morphological, and mechanical properties of poly(l-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(l-lactide)/thermoplastic starch blends

This work investigated the thermal, morphological, and tensile properties of poly(l-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(l-lactide) (PLLA-PEG-PLLA)/thermoplastic starch (TPS) blends with 3 wt% citric acid (CA) treatment of TPS. The blends with PLLA-PEG-PLLA/CA-TPS ratios of 100/0, 90/10, 80/20, a...
