Abstract Immiscible polyolefin–elastomer blends often exhibit limited impact resistance and unstable melt-flow behavior due to weak interfacial adhesion and inefficient stress transfer between phases. These limitations are relevant for fused filament fabrication (FFF), where fila...

Pectin films are promising renewable materials for biodegradable coatings; however, their high hydrophilicity and limited resistance to ultraviolet (UV) radiation restrict practical applications. This work investigated the influence of kraft lignin (0–5 wt%) on the structure–prop...
