Multi-scale thermal stability of a hard thermoplastic protein-based material

Multi-scale thermal stability of a hard thermoplastic protein-based material

Although thermoplastic materials are mostly derived from petro-chemicals, it would be highly desirable, from a sustainability perspective, to produce them instead from renewable biopolymers. Unfortunately, biopolymers exhibiting thermoplastic behaviour and which preserve their mechanical properties...
