INVESTIGATION OF POLYLACTIC ACID AND NANOCLAY EFFECTS ON THE DEGRADATION PROPERTIES OF LOW-DENSITY POLYETHYLENE BIO-COMPOSITES

Dina I.*, Gimba C. E, Okele A.

This study investigated the influence of polylactic acid (PLA), Nano clay, and glycerine as compatibilizers on the degradation properties of virgin and waste low-density polyethylene (LDPE), a primary material in polyethylene bag production. Virgin and waste LDPE, PLA, and Nano clay were sourced locally and compounded using a two-roll mill and comp...
