Wood fiber-reinforced polylactic acid sheets enabled by papermaking

Abstract: Polylactic acid is a biodegradable thermoplastic polyester derived from renewable polysaccharides. In this work, softwood fibers were used to reinforce the paper sheet made from polylactic acid fibers, thus addressing the challenges regarding low density, rough surface, and weak strength. The impact of wood fibers and calendering on the physical properties (density, roughness, tensile strength, and folding endurance) of the composite paper were identified. Furthermore, the morphology of papers with different f… Show more

“…Furthermore, high mechanical properties, i.e., tensile strength, bursting strength, and folding endurance, make the trilayered porous membranes a potentially promising candidate for practical applications due to unavoidable stretching, folding, and pressure in daily wear. As Figure a–d depicts, the tensile strength of trilayered porous membranes peaked at 7.26 kN m –1 , whereas the folding endurance peaked at 4019 times, which was much higher than neat plant fiber membranes (2214 times).…”
