Study of poly(L-lactide) using Fast Scanning Calorimetry

Fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) is an effective analytical tool to characterize the thermal properties of polymers. Heating rates up to 100 000 K/s allow studies at time scales inaccessible with conventional calorimeters, whose rates are typically less than about 0.5 K/s. Recent studies have success...

description Fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) is an effective analytical tool to characterize the thermal properties of polymers. Heating rates up to 100 000 K/s allow studies at time scales inaccessible with conventional calorimeters, whose rates are typically less than about 0.5 K/s. Recent studies have successfully demonstrated methods for obtaining quantitative analysis of thermal properties of polymer samples using chip-based FSC. Therefore very small sample sizes, such as particles or nonwovens, can be characterized. In this study, we investigated the thermal properties of poly(L-lactide) PLLA with FSC compared to the results from standard DSC methods. PLLA specimens were fabricated via solution casting and needle electrospinning. The results suggest a significant influence of heating rates on the melting temperature of PLLA.
