Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Cover:</bold> Small amounts of organoclay are added to a PLA/PA11 blend at 70% wt. of PLA to turn the drop‐matrix morphology into a co‐continuous one. In such a way, a remarkable improvement of the high‐temperature creep resistance is achieved owing to the clay‐rich PA11 framework, which interpenetrates the PLA and contributes to bear stresses up to 160 °C. Further details can be found in the article by A. Nuzzo, S. Coiai, S. C. Carroccio, N. T. Dintcheva, C. Gambarotti, and G. Filippone on page 31. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg3zzbfcpq" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
