Embodiment 2

[0142] The molded samples were then subjected to an annealing treatment in an unconfined environment in a Venti-Line VL115 model furnace with circulating air using the following operating conditions: temperature = 90°C, time = 60 minutes.

[0143] After cooling and further conditioning for 1 day at T=23° C. and 55% RH, the annealed specimens were then investigated to determine dimensional stability, mechanical properties and heat distortion temperature HDT.

[0144] The results of this characterization are shown in Tables 5-7.

Embodiment 3-5

[0146] The molded test pieces according to Example 1 were subjected to three different annealing treatments using the operating conditions shown in Table 3:

Abstract

This invention relates to a biodegradable polymer composition which is particularly suitable for use in the manufacture of articles having a high heat deflection temperature (HDT) by injection moulding and thermoforming.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to biodegradable polymer compositions which are particularly suitable for the manufacture of articles having a high heat deflection temperature (HDT) by injection molding and thermoforming. [0002] The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of said compositions and articles obtained therefrom. Background technique [0003] Polylactic acid is a biodegradable thermoplastic polyester derived from renewable sources. Its mechanical properties make it an ideal candidate to replace conventional thermoplastic polymers, especially in applications where high rigidity is required, such as in the manufacture of disposable tableware, rigid containers or caps for beverage containers. [0004] Although polylactic acid can be used in standard machinery with minimal modifications, some of its properties have so far prevented its widespread and comprehensive use as a replacement for conventional thermoplastics.
