Polyhydroxybutrate filled clamshell biofiller: effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone

A totally green biocomposite was prepared via melt blending technique by using polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) as a matrix, clamshells powder (CaCO3) as a reinforcing filler and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a binder. PHB/CaCO3 was fixed at 70:30 ratio and PVP weight content varied at 3, 5, 7 and 9 wt%...
