Résumé
The article demonstrates a simple and innocuous method for fabrication of poly (lactic acid) (PLA)/modified gum arabic (MG)based hydrophobic, microcellular, highly porous and interconnected composite foam. The observed density of the composite foams was remarkably reduced by ~86% in comparison to PLA granules. Further, there was noticed an increase in cell density and a decrease in cell size due to the addition of MG nanofiller. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of developed foam showed no significant effect of MG in maximum degradation temperature (T
