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.

Abstract In this study, waste cotton cloth (RC) was bonded with soluble starches as an adhesive, then dried, cut into particles and filled into polylactic acid (PLA) to achieve resource efficiency. The mechanical, thermal and crystallization properties of the composites were characterized. The results indicated that with the addition of RC, the tensile strength, impact strength and flexural strength of PLA composites improved. Also, the heat distortion temperatures increased slowly, indicating that RC filled into PLA can be turned back into useful items without the degradation of PLA composites. This is a good way to give direction to the resource utilization of waste clothing. The addition of RC could significantly reduce the spherulitic size of PLA.

<p>In this study, rice-hull-filled poly(lactic acid) (PLA) biocomposites were prepared through the addition of 5 wt.% PLA-grafted-MA (CA) for the enhancement of adhesion between the polymer matrix and natural filler. The composites containing 30 wt.% rice hulls (RH) were prepared by compression molding, with particular attention given to the introduction of recycled PLA matrix, as well as to the possibility of the recycling and reuse of PLA/RH biocomposites. For all biocomposites, produced from neat polymer and RH and those produced after the recycling of PLA/RH composites, the mechanical and thermal properties were analyzed and compared to those of a commonly used thermoplastic based-polymer, polypropylene (PP), containing the same reinforcement. Thermal stability of biocomposites based on recycled PLA matrix and of the new composites produced from recycled ones was practically unchanged. Introduction of the recycled PLA matrix into biocomposites resulted in decreased flexural modulus and strengths of about 50%. Utilization of the mixture obtained after the thermal-mechanical recycling of the whole biocomposite resulted in a composite with slightly increased flexural modulus and decreased flexural strength.</p><p>The obtained results have shown that rice-hull-filled poly(lactic acid) biocomposites could be recycled and utilized for the production of new eco-materials with acceptable thermal and mechanical properties. Namely, the results for flexural strength and modulus of the recycled biocomposite samples are comparable to those of conventional formaldehyde wood medium density fiberboards used as construction elements for indoor applications.</p><br /><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong>  biocomposites, polylactic acid, polypropylene, rice hulls, compression moulding.</p>

 ABSTRACT  Polymer has many applications in human life, one of them is in the field of health. Polymer synthetics like polylactic acid (PLA), polyglycolic acid (PGA), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), and poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) were kind of polyesters that is many used in field   of health. Many researchers have already made research about degradation of PLA, PGA, PCL, and PLGA. However, there is no one doing research about degradation of combination between this two polymers, one of them is polyblend of  PLGA and PCL. Polyblend were made of four compositions, that were PLGA(90:10):PCL 3:1, PLGA(75:25):PCL 3:1, PLGA(90:10):PCL 5:1, and PLGA(75:25):PCL 5:1. Degradation was carried out for eight weeks by using phosphate buffer pH 7.4 and incubation temperature of 37°C. Degradation of the polymer was observed by mass remained, and intrinsic viscosity. The result showed that composition PLGA(75:25):PCL 5:1 was the fastest in degradation compared to other compositions. It was showed by the decrease in mass until 89.06% and the change in intrinsic viscosity until 20.13%. Keywords: PLGA, PCL

Complete Mineralization

The tendency of most commercially available plastic agricultural mulches to undergo only partial fragmentation with time leads to their long-term persistence in soil, resulting in potentially detrimental environmental hazards. Nonwovens composed of biobased polymers such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with micron-sized fibers may be potentially valuable for agricultural mulches due to their high mechanical strength and potential ability to undergo complete mineralization. To assess the performance of 100% PLA spunbond (SB) and meltblown (MB) mulches, and commercially available cellulosic mulch, a greenhouse bench study was conducted where the mulches were buried in soil augmented with either lime or compost for 10 and 29 wk to accelerate biodegradation and mineralization. At 10 and 29 wk, MB and SB mulches, respectively, lost considerable mechanical strength for all soil treatments while showing only minimal signs of loss in molecular weight.
