From structure to degradability: tailoring poly(lactic acid)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) properties with metal–organic framework (MOF-2) for eco-responsive packaging applications
Key Points
Biodegradability improves with the incorporation of metal-organic framework MOF-2, enhancing eco-responsiveness.
The study shows significant structural changes in poly(lactic acid) and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) composites.
Analysis of polymer blends reveals enhanced mechanical properties and degradation rates due to the metal-organic framework.
Findings may enable the development of more sustainable packaging materials, reducing environmental impact.
