Comprehensive data on the mechanical properties and biodegradation profile of polylactide composites developed for hard tissue repairs

Polylactide (PLA), a biopolymer, was reinforced with three fillers (two organic reinforcements and one inorganic filler).The processing technique used to fabricate the composites was the melt-blending technique.The composites and the unreinforced PLA were subjected to microhardness, compression and biodegradation characterisations.Data obtained are
