Differential scanning calorimetry and elasticity of textured, heat set and mechanical strained polylactide multifilaments
(2011)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIndustrially textured PLA multifilaments were heat set under different conditions at 110 ºC for 1 min and subjected to one cycle of deformation up to 20%. Thermal transitions of the original textured, heat set and cyclic ... -
Effect of processing and wearing on viscoelastic modeling of polylactide/wool and polyester/wool woven fabrics subjected to bursting
(2014-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPolyester fibers (PET) are greatly used in textiles but depend on fossil fuel resources. Poly-(lactic acid) (PLA) is an aliphatic polyester that can be derived from 100% renewable resources. The load-extension plot of a ... -
Thermal transitions of polylactide false-twist textured multifilaments determined by DSC and TMA
(2010)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA partially oriented melt-extruded PLA multifilament was false-twist textured to stabilize its structure. Conventional DSC analysis showed a relaxation peak at the end of glass transition. Simultaneous consideration of the ...
