Synergistic Effect of Graphene Nanoplatelets and Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes Incorporated in PLA Matrix: Nanoindentation of Composites with Improved Mechanical Propertie

The synergistic effect of two carbon nanofillers on the mechanical properties of PLA-based nanocomposites was investigated in the present work. Polylactic acid is relatively brittle semi-crystalline polymer which was selected for composite matrix because of its biodegradable properties.
