Classifying Thermal Degradation of Polylactic Acid by Using Machine Learning Algorithms Trained on Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Data
Polylactic acid (PLA) is the most common polymeric material in the 3D printing industry but degrades under harsh environmental conditions such as under exposure to sunlight, high-temperatures, water, soil, and bacteria. An understanding of degradation phenomena of PLA materials is critical to manufa...
