“…PBAT is a random copolymer, which means that it cannot crystallise significantly and thus, has a relatively wide melting point, low elastic modulus, and stiffness, but has relatively high flexibility and toughness, making it ideal for improving the toughness of polymer blends. Because of these properties, PBAT is often blended with protein-based thermoplastics (e.g., thermoplastic whey [ 4 , 8 ], soy [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ], zein [ 13 ], sodium caseinate [ 14 ], and blood meal [ 15 , 16 ]), and a compatibiliser is typically included in these blends to aid in interfacial adhesion. Common compatibilisers are maleic anhydride-grafted PBAT [ 10 , 11 ], poly-2-ethyl-2-oxazoline (PEOX), pMDI [ 17 ], itaconic anhydride-grafted PBAT [ 16 ], poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether) [ 13 ], and glycidyl methacrylate-grafted PBAT.…”
