Tailoring crystallization: towards high-performance poly(lactic acid)

Liu, Guoming, Zhang, Xiuqin, Wang, Dujin·2014·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is one of the most promising alternatives for petrochemical‐based plastics. Crystallization mediation provides the simplest and most practical approach for enhancing the properties of PLA. Here, recent advances in understanding the relationship between crystalline structure and properties of PLA are summarized. Methods for manipulating crystallization towards high‐performance PLA materials are introduced.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The rate of PLA crystallization is slow, frequently slower than the cooling rate used in common polymer processing devices.

    “However, the rate of the PLA crystallization is slow (Auras et al., 2004;Liu et al., 2014;Murariu et al., 2015;Zhang et al., 2018), frequently slower than the cooling rate used in common polymer processing devices (Zhang et al., 2018).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
