Description
Absrtact
In this study, modified PLA was created by melting polylactic acid after combining it with epoxy resin without the need of a hardener. During melt mixing, chitosan and epoxy resin were added to PLA. Epoxidized natural rubber was melt-blended with polylactic acid and chitozan. A softening test was used to observe the thermal characteristics. The crystallinity and softening point were raised throughout the annealing process. The annealing procedure enhanced the mixture's shape and thermal characteristics while this reaction improved the mechanical properties.
