Effect of processing method on thermal behavior in PLA/PEG melt blending

The dispersion of PEG acts as plasticizer in PLA blends were investigated using thermal analysis. The comparisons were made between two melt processing method, twin screw extruder and two-roll mills to study how it will affect the Tg, Tc and Tm of blends in DSC analysis. The TGA behavior was also st...
