Preparation, characterisation, and biocompatibility of Ganoderma lucidum fibre-based composites with polylactic acid
چکیده انگلیسی

The thermal, mechanical, and biocompatibility properties of composite materials formed of polylactide (PLA) and natural fibres of Ganoderma lucidum fibre (GLF) were evaluated. Maleic anhydride-grafted PLA (PLA-g-MA) was used to improve the mechanical properties of PLA/GLF composites. The PLA-g-MA/GLF composites exhibited superior mechanical properties, attributed to the greater compatibility between the polymer and GLF, compared with those of PLA/GLF composites. The dispersion of GLF in the PLA-g-MA matrix was highly homogeneous as a result of condensation reactions. The lower melt torque of the PLA-g-MA/GLF composites also made them more easily processed than PLA/GLF. To assess biocompatibility, normal human foreskin fibroblasts (FBs) were seeded onto each of the composite types. FB proliferation, collagen production, and cytotoxicity assays indicated greater biocompatibility on the PLA/GLF composites than on the PLA-g-MA/GLF composites.
