In this work, microbial polyester, poly(3-hydroxybutyric acid) (PHB) was blended with polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) in various composition %(100/0, 95/5, 90/10, 85/15, 80/20, 75/25, 70/30, 65/35 and 0/100) and the film for each ratio was prepared by the solution casting method. The prepared films were th...
