The tensile strength, permeability and discharge capacity of biodegradable plastic drain boards made with poly lactic acid (PLA) have been tested and verified prior to their usage at field. Based on test results, the tensile strength of biodegradable plastic drain board made with PLA has relatively lower tensile strain and tensile strength than those of plastic drain board. Performance of PLA filter having good permeability and low opening size is proper for the filter of vertical drain board. In case of improving stiffness of PLA filter, biodegradable plastic drain board also satisfies required discharge capacity as use of vertical drain board too.

A research on scaffold fabrication has been progressed in many research groups. However, the mechanical properties of existing biodegradable materials are still not satisfactory. But, PPF (poly (propylene fumarate)) has a good mechanical property in comparison to other biodegradable materials. Nevertheless, the viscosity of the synthesized PPF is too high to fabricate structures using micro-stereolithography. Therefore, the viscosity of the resin was made low by adding the diethyl fumarate and this material could be used in micro-stereolithography apparatus. Then, a photoinitiator was added for photo crosslinking of the DEF/PPF resin. 2.5D and 3D scaffolds were fabricated our system and curing characteristics of the resin were analyzed through the experiment.

This research was conducted in order to improve the hydrolysis resistance and mechanical properties of a resin compound and biodegradable mulching film, produced through the use of PBAT(Poly Butylene Adipate-co-Terephthalate) and PLA(Poly Lactic Acid). Various ratios of chain extenders and mechanical properties according to the annealing temperature conditions were investigated. The annealing process showed that compound resin can improve the crystallization capacity. In addition, incorporation of the chain extender was shown to improve and increase the tensile strength and hydrolysis resistance of the film. In the case of 0.6phr chain extender, the tensile strength was 383.0Kgf/cm², which was improved by 155% compared to the control films. When the blow up ratio(BUR) was 2.5, the optimal tensile strength of the film increased greatly, expanding up to 379.0/195.2kgf/cm² in the both machine direction (MD) and transverse direction (TD).

최근 플라스틱 제품의 사용후 폐기에서 발생 되는 환경적인 문제점들이 대두 되고 있는 가운데, 이러한 제품에 대한 친환경적인 재료 설계에 대한 요구가 거세지고 있는 실정으로 플라스틱 업계의 사활이 걸릴 정도의 중요한 문제로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 플라스틱 제품의 치명적인 환경적인 문제점을 극복하고자, Matrix 물질이 되는 플라스틱에서 부터 친 환경적인 생분해성 수지를 사용하면서, 물성의 강화제로써 천연물 유래의 여러 종류의 섬유를 사용하고자 하였다.가장 보편화된 생분해성 플라스틱인 지방족 폴리에스테르 계통의 생분해성 수지와 Polylactic acid에 대해 검토를 하였다. 지방족 폴리에스테르 의 경우는 기존 플라스틱 제품과 비교해서 유연하고, 신장율이 높고, PLA 대비 내열 사용한계 온도도 높아서 물성적인 측면에서 상당한 장점을 가지고는 있으나 가격이 매우 고가이므로, 기존 플라스틱을 대체하는 것에는 문제점이 있다. 반면 PLA의 경우 지방족 폴리에스테르 대비 절반 이하의 가격이고 기계적 강도 또한 매우 높기 때문에 기존의 플라스틱을 대체할 수 있는 가장 유력한 물질로 대두 되고 있으나, 사출물과 같은 충격이 요구되는 제품에 있어서는 PLA 고유의 약한 취성이 가장 큰 단점으로 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 PLA를 기반으로 PLA의 장점이 기계적 강성을 유지하면서, 취성을 보완하기 위해 PBS를 혼합 할 수 있는 기술을 개발하였으며, 또한 원재료의 Cost를 줄이고, PBS 혼합에 따른 PLA의 기계적 강도 감소를 보완하기 위해 천연물 유래의 Wood fiber, Starch, Bamboo fiber, Cellulose fiber, Paper fiber 와 같은 각종 천연 Filler를 사용하여 기계적 기계적 강도 감소를 최소화 하였다.

Biodegradable enzymes such as lipase and proteinase can hydrolyze not only fatty acid esters and triglycerides, but also aliphatic polyesters. We measured the biodegradability that biodegradable enzymes have an important role in the degradation of natural aliphatic poly material such as PLA, corn starch, and polyethylene glycol in the natural environment. However, we investigated on the biodegradability of PLA, PLA and Polyethylene acrylate blended, and PLAcoPolyethylene polymerized with PLA graft copolymer Polyethylene glycol acrylate. When prepared biodegradable polymers. the Mechanical properties of them were measured on Biodegradability, thermal properties, real time in-situ electrical monitoring of polymers resin. Therefore BOD and biodegradation of PLAcoPolyethylene was graft copolymerized with PLA and polyethylene acrylate were measured at a lower rate than the other samples.

The aim of this study is to fabricate composite bone plates consisted of unidirectional biodegradable glass fibers (BGF) and polylactic acid (PLA) and evaluate the performance of the composite bone plates according to the temperature ($50.0^{\circ}C$) of PBS (Phosphate Buffer Saline) solution and exposure time (0~3 weeks). Mechanical characteristics, such as bending stiffness, flexural strength, water uptake and mass loss, were investigated and the results showed that mechanical properties of the plates decreased as soaking duration increased due to loss of composite material.

This article aims to enhance the biodegradability and environment-friendliness of petroleum based biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-succinate-co-terephthalate)(PBAST) by blending chemically modified thermoplastic starch(CMPS). CMPS is a kind of bio-based biodegradable resin which is manufactured by reacting starch with maleic anhydride(MA) in the presence of a plasticizer and a free radical initiator. The characteristic properties of PBAST/CMPS blends were investigated by observing their morphology, thermal, mechanical properties, and biodegradability. The good interfacial adhesion between the phases examined by SEM revealed that PBAST/CMPS blends were compatible blends. The tensile strength and elongation decreased with increasing CMPS content, while modulus increased. The biodegradability of the blends was much higher than that of pristine PBAST and increased with increasing CMPS contents.
