## Abstract Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and soy protein concentrate (SPC) were compounded using poly(2βethylβ2βoxazoline) as compatibilizer by twinβscrew extrusion, and the resulting blends were foamed by a chemical blowing agent (CBA) using the same extruder. Effects of foaming temperature and CBA con

## Abstract Biodegradable foams derived from poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and starch were prepared by extrution using water as a blowing agent and talc as nucleation agent. Foam cellular size and size distribution was significantly affected by extrusion conditions (i.e., extruder temperature profiles, d
## Abstract This study presents the application of the porous poly(D,Lβlacticβcoβglycolic acid) (PLGA) sponges fabricated from an organic solvent free supercritical gas foaming technique. Two formulations of PLGA sponges with different coβpolymer compositions (85:15 and 50:50) were fabricated as no
