Structures and Properties of Biodegradable Composites Based on Synthetic and Natural Polymers

详细

Features of the production in the solid state using shear stresses of biodegradable polymeric polysaccharide (cellulose, starch, chitin, chitosan, and ethylcellulose) composites with low-density polyethylene and polylactide were reviewed. The mechanical characteristics and biodegradability of the composites were determined as functions of the composition and nature of the used polysaccharides. A third component affected the physicomechanical characteristics of the composites and their biodegradability.
