• Mechanical recycling of polylactide, upgrading trends and combination of valorization techniques (2016, background): “of the endotherms of PLA can show a change from an uni-modal to a bimodal distribution, which might be attributed to a superimposed melting-crystallization-melting process, dependent on the kinetics of the temperature program [73]–[75].”
• The effects of PLA color on material properties of 3-D printed components (2015, background): “The effects of annealing on PLA are complex, as there are often two melting peaks observed based on melt-recrystallization model, in which small and imperfect crystals changed successively into more stable crystals through the melting and recrystallization [39].”
