Relationships between material properties and microstructure-mechanical attributes of extruded biopolymeric foams

"Material formulation and extrusion process parameters affect the foaming process in terms of expansion, cell nucleation, and resultant foam microstructure, which, in turn, control mechanical properties. This study utilizes non-invasive x-ray microtomography (XMT), in combination with mechanica...
