Mechanical, Physical, and Barrier Properties of Poly(Lactide) Films
Abstract
High molecular mass poly(lactide), (PLA), is an attractive polymer family because in addition to being thermoplastic, biodegradable, compostable, and produced from annually renewable resources, it shows mechanical and barrier behavior comparable to synthetic polymers like polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Furthermore, technology for large-scale fabrication of PLA has been fully developed. However, there is still a need to better understand the properties of PLA as this polymer is adapted to packaging applications, especially for food packaging. In this work, films from two PLA resins were studied by tensile testing; differential scanning calorimetry (DSC); and permeation of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and water vapor. The data from these two PLA film samples are compared to those of PS and PET.

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.
