Abstract: The cold crystallization properties of the blends of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and amino-ester elastomer were studied. It was found that the amino-ester elastomer promoted the crystallization of PLA. The crystallization rate and crytallinity of the blends decreased with increasing content of amino-ester elastomer and also with increasing heating rate.

Key words: poly(lactic acid), amino ester elastomer, blending, crystallization behavior
