This article investigated the effects of electron beam (EB) irradiation on poly(D,L-lactic acid)-b-poly-(ethylene glycol) copolymer (PLEG) and poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA). The dominant effect of EB irradiation on both PLEG and PLLA was chain scission. With increasing dose, recombination reactions or
## Abstract **Summary:** Two different types of biodegradable polyester composites, PLLA fiberβreinforced PCL and PCL/PLLA blend films were prepared at PCL/PLLA ratio of 88/12 (w/w), together with pure PCL and PLLA films. Their enzymatic degradation was investigated by the use of __Rhizopus arrhizu
