Properties and Degradation of Novel Fully Biodegradable PLA/PHB Blends Filled with Keratin

Properties and Degradation of Novel Fully Biodegradable PLA/PHB Blends Filled with Keratin

The utilization of keratin waste in new materials formulations can prevent its environmental disposal problem. Here, novel composites based on biodegradable blends consisting of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), and filled with hydrolyzed keratin with loading from 1 to 20 wt...
