Environmentally friendly polylactide-based composite formulations

摘要: Polymeric materials and products, including sheet flooring prepared from the polymeric materials, processes for preparing are disclosed. The include a polylactic acid-based polymer in combination with plasticizer compatibilizer, optionally filler. material can between about 30 to 50 percent by weight polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene glycol, polyglycolide, ethylene vinyl acetate, polycarbonate, polycaprolactone, polyhydroxyalkanoates, or polyolefins modified polar groups, example, ionomers. is typically an epoxidized vegetable oil esterified present amount of 10 50% weight. In some embodiments, compatibilizer polyolefin one more functional 5 10% be used decorative surface coverings, such as floor particularly when it form sheet. at least layer covering, which covering also additional layers wear layers, foamed foamable top coat design layers. material.
