摘要
Rheological properties in a molten state are studied extensively for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3hydroxyvalerate), PHB-HV, with a small amount of crosslinked poly(epichlorohydrin), PECH, having low density of crosslink points. It is found that adding 2 wt % of xPECH greatly enhances the melt elasticity of PHB-HV, one of the serious defects of microbial PHB, whereas it has no effect on the shear viscosity. As a result, viscoelastic nature, and thus processability, of PHB-HV can be controlled by blending the crosslinked PECH. (C) 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
