The potential use of electrospun polylactic acid nanofibres as alternative reinforcements in an epoxy composite system

The potential use of electrospun polylactic acid nanofibres as alternative reinforcements in an epoxy composite system

This pilot study elaborates the development of novel epoxy/electrospun polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibre composites at the fibre contents of 3, 5 and 10 wt% to evaluate their mechanical and thermal properties using flexural tests and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The flexural moduli of comp...
