In the past two decades, synthetic biodegradable and biobased polyesters have emerged as
a sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-derived polymers for diverse range of …

The self-assembly of block copolymers (BCPs) in the presence of crystallization as the
second driving force is reviewed, for BCPs in the bulk, thin films, single crystals and micelles …

This work deals with the study of the mesomorphic form or mesophase induced by tensile
drawing from the amorphous state of a polylactide material containing 4 mol% of d …

The crystal structure model of stereocomplex between poly (l-lactic acid)(PLLA) and poly (d-
lactic acid)(PDLA) with the L/D ratio of 50/50 was proposed by several groups [the space …

During crystallization, conformational changes are often accompanied by the formation of
interactions. Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy exhibits strong responses to the crystalline poly …

Polylactide (PLA) exhibits various types of crystal modifications depending on the
preparation conditions, including the components. To solve the open question, a reliable …

Structural evolution has been traced in the crystallization process of poly (l-lactic
acid)(PLLA) from the melt or from the glass by measuring the FTIR spectra, wide-angle X-ray …

Polylactic acid (PLA) is a promising alternative to petroleum‐based polymers due to its
biodegradability. However, its low mechanical properties in the presence of moisture are a …

Stereocomplex (SC) crystallization has been an effective way to improve the physical
performance of polymer materials. However, SC crystallization of stereocomplexable …

Increasing the toughness of poly (lactic acid)(PLA), ie, simultaneously increasing both the
tensile strength and ductility, remains a major challenge. In this study, fully bio-based PLA …
