Biodegradable composition

Abstract

Disclosed is a biodegradable composition, including: 5 to 90 percent by weight of polylactic acid (PLA), 5 to 80 percent by weight of plant fiber, and 5 to 70 percent by weight of maleic anhydride-grafted polybutylene succinate (PBS-g-MA), acrylic acid-grafted polybutylene succinate (PBS-g-AA), or silane coupling agent-grafted polybutylene succinate (PBS-g-Silane). The article manufactured therefrom is not only biodegradable but also has an enhanced heat deformation temperature, impact resistance and tensile strength. Further, by so limiting the proportion of each component, compatibility between the components may be increased and crystallization of polylactic acid may be facilitated.
