Thermal, mechanical and morphological properties of poly (hydroxybutyrate) and polypropylene blends after processing

The ever increasing accumulation of plastic waste in the environment has motivated research on polymers that degrade rapidly after being discarded as possible substitutes for conventional inert plastics. Biodegradable polymers can be an alternative, since they have non-toxic residual products and lo...
