Characterization of PHB/Clay Biocomposites Exposed to Degradation in an Aquatic Environment

Characterization of PHB/Clay Biocomposites Exposed to Degradation in an Aquatic Environment

The present work investigates the aquatic biodegradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)/nanoclay bionanocomposites containing PP-g-MA as compatibilizing agent. Both pristine and organically modified (Cloisite20A®) montmorillonite clay were used as fillers in different content (1 and 3 wt%). The bi...
