Applications of Polylactic Acid-Magnesium Composite Materials for Sustainable Packaging Solutions
摘要
Sustainable packaging has gained increasing attention due to environmental concerns associated with conventional plastic materials. Polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polymer derived from renewable resources, has emerged as a promising alternative to petroleum-based plastics. However, PLA’s mechanical propertiesMechanical properties and thermal stability are often inadequate for certain applications. To address these limitations, the incorporation of magnesium (Mg)Magnesium reinforcement as a reinforcing agent in PLA-based compositesComposite has shown potential. This mini-review focuses on the development of PLA-magnesium compositeComposite materials for sustainable packaging solutions. The review discusses the properties of PLA, the role of magnesium in enhancing PLA performance, and the environmental benefits and applications of PLA-MgBiodegradable materials compositesComposite in packagingPLA-Mg nanocomposites.
