Epoxy Functional Polystyrene for Enhanced PLA Miscibility

摘要

Polystyrene blends and methods of making polystyrene blends including combining a styrene monomer and an epoxy-functional comonomer to form a combined mixture, subjecting the combined mixture to polymerization to obtain a polystyrene copolymer and combining the polystyrene copolymer with a biodegradable polymer to obtain a polystyrene blend.
