Abstract

Abstract Blending poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with a small amount of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐ co ‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV; 10 wt%) using a custom multilayer co‐extrusion process increases both ductility and gas barrier properties of extruded films compared with neat PLA and classical blending methods.
