“…Consequently, biodegradable polymers have been attracted tremendous attention . Poly (butylene adipate co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) is an aliphatic‐aromatic copolyester with good comprehensive properties, such as high mechanical and barrier properties and easy thermal process. This commercially available biodegradable polymer can be manufactured from the copolymerization of adipic acid, 1,4‐butanediol, and dimethyl terephthalate.…”

It is important to develop high performances biodegradable polymers to eliminate the “white pollution” evoked by petroleum‐based polymer. Thermoplastic starch (TPS) with nano‐ellipse configuration was fabricated to reinforce the performances of poly (butylene adipate co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) biocomposites. Effects of tartaric acid (TA) (0.5% wt) on the structure of TPS and compatibility for PBAT were evaluated by Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), viscosity and rheological measurement, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. They revealed that TA reduced the molecular weight of starch and shear viscosity of TPS were beneficial for TPS dispersing in PBAT matrix with 184‐nm averaged diameter. PBAT/TPS‐TA (70:30 wt%) biocomposite films were blew with different blow‐up ratio. The morphology of films presented that nano‐TPS‐TA wrapped in the PBAT matrix and deformed from ball to capsule feature without agglomeration. Compared with those of PBAT film, the increment in elongation at break of PBAT/TPS‐TA film was 100%. The air permeability and UV‐VIS transmittance of PBAT/TPS‐TA films decreased from 6.92 × 10−9 to 3.72 × 10−9 cm3·cm·cm−2 s−1 Pa−1 and 47.6% to 23.5%, respectively. This study proposed a facile approach to fabricate low‐cost PBAT films with significant improved mechanical, optical, and air barrier properties for commercial application. Mechanism for nanoparticles of TPS‐TA motivated the elevated performances was proposed, synchronously.

“…The biological degradation of PBAT has been thoroughly investigated [2][3][4]. PBAT can be used to produce fibers [5,6], textile, films [7] (such as mulching films) and packaging materials [8,9]. Moreover, PBAT composites and modified PBAT have been widely investigated in order to prepare value-added products, such as conductive [10] and antimicrobial materials [11][12][13][14][15][16], and meanwhile to minimize the cost.…”

“…Shi et al 26 have produced sheath-core type PBT/PBAT bicomponent fi bres by extruding the melts of PBT (intrinsic viscosity of 0.88 dL/g) as the sheath and PBAT (melt volume fl ow rate of 3-6 ml/10 min) as the core using two different extrusion systems. The co-axially combined polymer melts were extruded through 2.4 Pipe-in-pipe mixing element.…”
