Compounding and rheometry of PLA nanocomposites with coated and uncoated hydroxyapatite nanoplatelets

Polylactic acid and novel nanoplatelets of hydroxyapatite (HANP) were compounded in a laboratory scale twin-screw extruder and injection moulded to shape. The effect of HANP loading content, between 1 wt% and 10 wt%, and of HANP surface coating with tailored molecular dispersants, on the processabil...
