Brittle-to-ductile transition of PLA induced by macromolecular orientation

This work deals with the influence of biaxial orientation on the mechanical behavior of Polylactide (PLA) films. Comparisons between a crystallizable grade and a non-crystallizable one have been made in order to separate the effect of macromolecular orientation from the potential influence of the cr...
