Abstract In the current study poly(lactic acid) PLA composites with a 3 wt% and
5 wt% of nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) were produced by 3D-printing method.
An enzymatic pretreatment coupled with mechanical fibrillation in a twin screw
extruder was used to produce high consistency NFC. Scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) equipped with Fibermetric software, FASEP fiber length distribution analysis, Furrier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis
(TGA), tensile tests, impact tests and differential scanning calorimetry were used
to characterize NFC and PLA/NFC composites. The results of the fiber length
and width measurements together with the results of the… More >
