polymermischungen aliphatic polyester on the basis of polylactiden, procedures to their manufacture and methods for forms, these mixtures

摘要

Biodegradable polymer blends comprising of a polylactic acid or a copolymer containing lactic acid as the main constituent, and a polyhydroxyalkanoate or a copolymer containing two or more hydroxyalkanoic acids as the constituents; methods for controlling the rate of biodegradation of a polylactic acid or a copolymer containing lactic acid as the main constituent, by blending as above; methods for manufacturing such aliphatic polyester polymer blends; and methods for molding such polymer blends; are provided. The aliphatic polyester polymer blends obtained in the invention are colorless and clear, and have excellent biodegradabilities, as well as excellent mechanical strengths. The blends can be molded similarly as in conventional thermoplastic resins, so that they can be utilized in many industries, without problems in the waste product treatment after the use. Furthermore, molded products with excellent qualities are obtained from the blends, because of their improved moldabilities.
