Abstract Fabrication of flame retardants from renewable biomass has aroused extensive interest over the past decade. This
work reported a synthesis of isosorbide-derived polyphosphonate (PICPP) as an anti-flammable agent for poly
(lactic acid) (PLA). The presence of PICPP notably declined the storage modulus of PLA/PICPP owing to the
declined molecular weight of PLA catalyzed by the presence of PICPP. PLA and PLA/PICPP thermally degraded
in one stage under either air or nitrogen atmosphere. With increasing the amount of PICPP, the onset thermal
decomposition temperature of PLA/PICPP was decreased gradually, owing to the earlier decomposition of PICPP. More >
