Morphological investigation of polylactide/microfibrillated cellulose composites

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, John Christopher Plummer, Carole Boissard

Optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy have been used to investigate the morphology of polylactide (PLA)/microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) composites prepared by: compression molding of wet-comingled MFC and PLA latex or powder, twin-screw ...

Cellular biocomposites from polylactide and microfibrillated cellulose

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, John Christopher Plummer, Carole Boissard, Razvan Cristian Neagu

This paper describes the production of "green" microfibrillated cellulose-reinforced polylactide cellular biocomposites using a wet mixing technique combined with super-critical carbon dioxide foaming. The effect of composition on the morphology, density a ...

Water of functionalized microfibrillated cellulose as foaming agent for the elaboration of poly(lactic acid) biocomposites

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Carole Boissard

This article presents a study on the foam processing of sustainable biocomposites made of polyl(actic acid) (PLA) and functionalized microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) using water as a foaming agent. MFC contains moisture and can be used as a water carrying ...
