Conductive polymer composites (CPCs) have attracted great attention of researchers due to their enhanced properties such as an adjustable electrical conductivity, good processability, good mechanical and thermal properties, etc. CPCs had many potencies for wider application in electronic devices. Poly (lactic acid) or PLA is one of the interesting polymers used in the developing of these new important materials. PLA properties are comparable to the synthetic petroleum-based polymers such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene (PP), etc. This research focuses on studying the rheological and thermal properties of PLA/micro-graphite as a conductive polymer composite which adjustable its electrical conductivity. In this study, the PLA/micro-graphite was prepared through solvent blending method using chloroform. The micro-graphite composition was varied from 0%, 5%, and 10 % (w/w) with different stirring time (30 and 60 minutes) and then, poured in glass mould. In the melt rheology study, the frequency sweep test showed that the complex viscosity (|η*|) of the bio-composite increased with the micro-graphite loading. The same tendency was also found in thermal property and stability. The melting temperature and thermal degradation were slightly increasing. The crystallinity of PLA was influenced by the presence of micro-graphite. In this solvent blending method, the homogeneous distribution of micro-graphite in the bio-composite required at least 60 minutes (stirred at 650 rpm and 60 °C).

The emulsion of chitosan in acetic acid aqueous and poly lactic acid in chloroform was spray-dried to obtain the chitosan/poly lactic acid microencapsules (CS-PLA). The polypyrrole / chitosan/ polylactic acid microencapsules were prepared by polymerization pyrrole on CS-PLA. The structures and the morphologies of microencapsules were characterized by FTIR, SEM, TGA and four probes technique. The results showed that multilayer polypyrrole were formation on the surface of CS-PLA microencapsules, the microencapsules had 3.0-8.0 μm diameters with smooth surface, and the electrical conductivity value was 1.03×10-3 S/cm.
