Mechanical, Morphological and Thermal Properties of Woven Polyester Fiber Reinforced Polylactic Acid (PLA) Composites

Polylactic acid (PLA) is derived from renewable sources and is among the most commercially available bioplastics. However, the application of PLA is limited due to its properties, such as poor thermal stability and ductility. The incorporation of woven polyester in the polymeric system has enhanced the properties of PLA. This research determines the mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties of woven polyester fiber-reinforced polylactic...
