In this lecture an overview of the results will be presented by industrial partner Corbion Purac in cooperation with research organisations Technical University of Eindhoven (TU/e) and Wageningen UR – Food and Biobased Research (WUR-FBR). Research of TU/e was focussed on the modelling/analysis of crystallisation behaviour of PLA due to a specific thermal and stretching history, while main point of attention of WUR-FBR’s research was on effect of crystallinity on final product properties like heat stability and mechanical properties. Practical relevance of this project/results will be presented by Corbion Purac. 1/1
