Abstract

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was blended with baked shell powder increasing the content up to 10wt%, and the influence of mixing the powder on the physical properties of the obtained PLA compounds were investigated. The measurements for storage modulus E' revealed that the settled powder will promote the crystallization of PLA. Moreover not only the thermal decomposition but also the biodegradation in compost system for PLA were enhanced by the mixing the powder.
