Rotational Molding of Poly(Lactic Acid)/Polyethylene Blends: Effects of the Mixing Strategy on the Physical and Mechanical Properties

Rotational Molding of Poly(Lactic Acid)/Polyethylene Blends: Effects of the Mixing Strategy on the Physical and Mechanical Properties

In this study, blends of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/linear medium density polyethylene (LMDPE) at different weight ratios were prepared by rotational molding. Two mixing strategies were used to evaluate the effect of phase dispersion on the physical and mechanical properties: (i) Dry-blending (DB) usin...
