Polylactic acid (PLA) is widely used in biological areas due to its excellent compatibility, bioabsorbability, and degradation behavior in human bodies. Pure polylactic acid has difficulty in meeting all the requirements that specific field may demand. Therefore, PLA based nanocomposites are extensively investigated over the past few decades. PLA based nanocomposites include PLA based copolymers in nanometer size and nanocomposites with PLA or PLA copolymers as matrix and nanofillers as annexing agent. The small scale effect and surface effect of nanomaterials help improve the properties of PLA and make PLA based nanocomposites more popular compared with pure PLA materials. This review mainly introduces different kinds of PLA based nanocomposites in recent researches that have great potential to be used in biomedical fields including bone substitute and repair, tissue engineering, and drug delivery system.

In this paper, glass fiber felts are fabricated by centrifugal-spinneret-blow process. Swing cylinder is designed to obtain a micro-layer structure, and the phase difference of two swing cylinders is π/2 + 2kπ. Tensile strength, flexural rigidity, and thermal conductivity of various glass fiber felts are investigated. The experimental results indicate that the tensile strength of micro-layer glass fiber felts and random glass fiber felts is 0.015 MPa and 0.013 MPa, respectively. In addition, the tensile strength of glass fiber felts is also improved with the increase of the density and the resin content of glass fiber felts. The micro-layer structure decreases the flexural rigidity of glass fiber felts, and the flexural rigidity of glass fiber felts with micro-layer and random structures is 43.4 g.cm and 101.3 g.cm, respectively. The mean thermal conductivity of glass fiber felts with micro-layer and random structures is 31.57 mW/m·k and 35.69 mW/m·k, respectively.
