Abstract:The effect of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) on homocrystallization (HC) and stereocomplex (SC) formation behavior of poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) and poly(d-lactide) (PDLA) bends was investigated utilizing differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Isothermal crystallization was performed on ESO/PLLA/PDLA blends with varying ESO contents (0, 5, 8, and 10 wt%) and temperatures (90 °C, 120 °C, and 150 °C) for a different duration (12.5, 25, and 125 min). It was found that the ESO could effectively inhibit HC crystallizat… Show more
