Manufacturing and compatibilization of PLA/PBAT binary blends by cottonseed oil-based derivatives
Open accessAbstract
This research work aims at the compatibilization of poly(lactic acid)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate), PLA/PBAT binary blends by using cottonseed oil derivatives, i.e. epoxidized (ECSO) and maleinized (MCSO) cottonseed oil.The potential of these vegetable oil-based compatibilizers are compared versus the effects of a conventional styreneacrylic oligomer.The base PLA/PBAT binary blend composition was 80 wt% PLA/20 wt% PBAT and the amount of compatibilizer was set to 1 and 7.5 wt%.The effects of the different compatibilizers were evaluated on PLA/PBAT films in terms of mechanical and thermal properties as well as blend's morphology by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM).Complementary, biodisintegration tests in controlled compost soil and surface properties were evaluated to assess the effects of the compatibilizers.Addition of 1 wt% ECSO and MCSO led to a remarkable increase in the elongation at break up to values over 100% with regard to neat PLA.Despite this, maximum elongation at break was obtained for the compatibilized PLA/PBAT blend with 7.5 wt% MCSO, reaching values of about 321.2% respect neat PLA keeping mechanical resistant properties, such as Young's modulus and tensile strength, at high levels.Therefore, vegetable oil-derived compatibilizers stand out as environmentally friendly additives for PLA/PBAT binary blends with improved properties.

When PBAT is added into the PLA matrix as a dispersed component, the elongation at break increases with increasing PBAT content (10-40 wt.%).
“When PBAT is added into the PLA matrix as a dispersed component, different studies point that the elongation at break increases, but the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity decrease with increasing PBAT content (10–40 wt.%) [9,10,11].”
From Uncompatibilized PBAT/PLA Blends: Manufacturability, Miscibility and Properties (2020) · cites this paper as [10]
The mechanical-properties results report that an uncompatibilized blend with 20 wt% PBAT had greater elongation at break than neat PLA (59.0% versus 29.2%). The Conclusions also say that adding PBAT increases elongation at break. The paper examines a 20 wt% PBAT blend, however, and does not establish that elongation increases progressively as PBAT content rises from 10 to 40 wt%. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredWhen PBAT is added into the PLA matrix as a dispersed component, the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity decrease with increasing PBAT content (10-40 wt.%).

From Uncompatibilized PBAT/PLA Blends: Manufacturability, Miscibility and Properties (2020) · cites this paper as [10]
The mechanical-properties results (section 3.1; page unavailable) give a lower Young’s modulus and tensile strength for the uncompatibilized blend containing 20 wt% PBAT than for neat PLA. The paper does not show a concentration-dependent decrease across 10–40 wt% PBAT; its studied blend contains 20 wt% PBAT. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn a PBAT/PLA blend, PBAT can act either as a dispersed component or as a polymer matrix.
“In a PBAT/PLA blend, PBAT can act either as a dispersed component [9,10] or as a polymer matrix.”

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.
